Abstract

The elevated cases of pregnant women infected with COVID-19 who needed to undergo caesarean section is a great challenge to anesthesiologists. Morbid obesity and preeclampsia in pregnancy are also another challenge to medical practice especially when the patient requires caesarean section. To describe the perioperative management of a morbidly obese preeclamptic patient with COVID-19. A pregnant woman with mild case of COVID-19, severe preeclampsia and obesity underwent an emergency caesarean section. Spinal anesthesia was performed using a Whitacre 26G spinal needle with 76 mm length, bupivacaine 0.5% 12.5 mg as spinal anesthesia agent and fentanyl 25 mcg as adjuvant. All operating teams use PPE according to COVID-19 guidelines and standard procedures. The operation went with a good outcome without any transmission to the operating team. The patient underwent treatment without postoperative complications. Spinal anesthesia is considered safe to be a usual technique for parturient with preeclampsia and morbid obesity. A proper COVID-19 surgery protocol is crucial in order to protect health workers handling COVID-19 patients.

Abstract

Background: Although conception is discouraged in women with Eisenmenger syndrome, in inevitable circumstances, careful and meticulous planning of anesthesia can help the parturient survive the ordeal of a cesarean section. Anaesthetic management is aimed at avoiding haemodynamic changes that increase right-to-left shunt, thereby worsening hypoxemia. This study aimed to present a case of a pregnant woman with Eisenmenger syndrome who underwent caesarean section under general anesthesia management with severe preeclampsia. Case presentation: A 42-year-old pregnant woman (gravida 3, para 1, abortion 1) was admitted to our hospital at 38 weeks gestation with the chief complaint of shortness of breath and severe preeclampsia. Physical examination revealed cyanotic with clubbing fingers and elevated jugular venous pressure. Laboratory investigations did not reveal any abnormalities. Electrocardiography (ECG) shows normal sinus rhythm and right atrial deviation. General anesthesia was chosen due to obstetric complications, namely severe preeclampsia. The patient was premedicated with a gastroprotective agent, ranitidine 150 mg. At follow-up anesthesia 36 hours after surgery, the patient scored for maximum perioperative comfort and satisfaction. Conclusion: A multidisciplinary approach is needed to secure maternal and fetal survival for patients with Eisenmenger syndrome. Termination of Caesarean section under general anaesthesia may be the method of delivery that can be used, but care must be taken to avoid excessive and rapid blockade, dehydration, and hypoxaemia.
