Maternal hypotension is a common complication after spinal anesthesia for cesarean delivery (CD). Using vasopressors have been considered a gold standard for prevention of post-spinal hypotension (PSH) during CD.~Norepinephrine (NE) is a potent vasopressor characterized by both α adrenergic agonist activity in addition to a weak β adrenergic agonist activity; thus, NE is considered a vasopressor with minimal cardiac depressant effect; these pharmacological properties would make NE an attractive alternative to phenylephrine and ephedrine (the most commonly used vasopressors in obstetric anesthesia).~Norepinephrine has been recently introduced as a prophylactic vasopressor during CD with promising results; However, the optimum dose for efficient prophylaxis with the least side effects is not known.~In this study, three doses (0.025, 0.050, 0.075 mcg/Kg/min) of norepinephrine will be compared for prophylaxis against PSH during CD.
three doses (0.025 mcg/Kg/min, 0.050 mcg/Kg/min, and 0.075 mcg/Kg/min) of norepinephrine will be compared for prophylaxis against Post-spinal anesthesia hypotension during Cesarean delivery.
