Placental blood flow was measured during the first stage of labour in pregnancies complicated by essential hypertension or severe pre-eclampsia using a 133Xe clearance technique before and after segmental epidural analgesia. Analgesia was produced with 0.5 per cent plain bupivacaine in six patients with essential hypertension and in 11 patients with severe pre-eclampsia. After segmental epidural analgesia the placental blood flow was slightly but insiginificantly improved in most of the patients with pre-eclampsia and in half of the patients with essential hypertension, thus suggesting this analgesic method to be safe in hypertensive pregnancies in the absence of any substantial change in systemic blood pressure.

Hemodynamic parameters were evaluated during various stages of anesthesia in two groups of patients aged 60-85 years with mild essential hypertension. In group 1, routine preoperative treatment with hypotensive drugs was carried out and in group 2 differentiated preoperative treatment with calcium antagonists was carried out with consideration for a hemodynamic type. Group I patients were operated on under traditional neuroleptic analgesia (NLA), group 2 under NLA with 40% lower drug doses than in group 1 and with addition of calcium antagonists. To patients with hypo- and eukinetic hemodynamics, nifedipine was injected (bolus injection) in a dose of 14.2 micrograms/kg before induction and then was infused in a dose of 6.0-14.2 micrograms/kg/min. Patients with hyperkinetic hemodynamics were injected verapamil in a dose of 70-140 micrograms/kg (bolus injection) and then the same dose every hour of the operation. Differentiated use of calcium antagonists during anesthesia helped transform the hyper- and hypokinetic types of hemodynamics into a more rational eukinetic type, which was associated with a decrease of MVO2. Calcium antagonists, exerting analgesic, automatic stabilizing, and antihypoxic effects, prevented the hyperdynamic reactions complicating NLA in 30% cases and precluded complications of concomitant ischemic diseases, which were observed in 40% of group 1 patients.
