Impact of Restrictive Fluid Therapy on Renal Function in Severe Preeclamptic Women Submitted to Cesarean Section Under Spinal Anesthesia

Detailed Summary

Introduction: Pre-eclampsia is a multifactorial syndrome which occurs in hypertension and proteinuria in pregnant women over 20 weeks gestation. It is the leading cause of maternal complications such as pulmonary edema, which occurs in about 3% of severe preeclamptic having as one of the causes volume overload. Anesthetic procedures are frequent in this population, with replacement with crystalloid of the duct during cesarean section under spinal anesthesia for combat hypotension and hypovolemia manifested by oliguria. However, as water therapy have antagonistic effects on cardiopulmonary and renal systems is no doubt as to the benefits compared to conventional or restrictive pattern of fluid therapy on renal function. Objective: To compare the renal function of patients with severe preeclampsia who received restrictive fluid therapy during caesarean section, as well as evaluating the use of cystatin C and Neutrophil gelatinase-associated lipocalin (NGAL) as a predictor of renal damage in this population. Hypothesis: Intraoperative fluid restriction did not influence renal function of patients with severe preeclampsia undergoing cesarean section under spinal anesthesia.
