METHOD OF DETECTING GROUPS OF RISK OF HIGH SPINAL BLOCKADE DEVELOPMENT IN PREGNANT WOMEN IN CESARIAN SECTION OPERATION Russian patent published in 2013 - IPC A61B5/103 A61M19/00 

FIELD: medicine.

SUBSTANCE: invention relates to medicine, namely, to anesthesiology and reanimatology, and can be used in carrying out spinal blockade in pregnant women in Cesarian section operation. For this purpose height, body weight index and intra-abdominal pressure are determined. After that, point evaluation of obtained parameters is carried out: height (cm) higher than 171 - 1 point, 170-166 - 2 points, 165-161 - 3 points, 160-156 - 4 points, 155-150 - 5 points, lower than 150 - 6 points. Body weight index 20-24.9 - 1 point, 25-29.9 - 2 points, 30-34.9 - 3 points, 35-39.9 - 4 points, more than 40-5 points. Intra-abdominal pressure (cm H₂0) lower than 16 - 1 point, 17-19 - 2 points, 20-21 - 3 points, 22-23 - 4 points, higher than 24 - 5 points. If sum of points constitutes 3-6, risk is estimated as low, if sum of points is 7-9, risk is estimated as moderate, if sum of points is 10-12, risk is high, is sum of points constitutes more than 13 points, risk is estimated as extremely high.

EFFECT: method ensures prevention of development of high spinal blockade due to correction of local anesthetic dose before surgical intervention with taking into account patient's individual peculiarities.
