Involuntary Movements

Involuntary movement during and after neuraxial anesthesia, such as spinal and epidural anesthesia, is rarely observed. In this report, we describe a case of myoclonus-like involuntary movement of the upper extremities in a patient undergoing a planned repeat cesarean section under spinal anesthesia with bupivacaine that completely subsided after 2mg midazolam administration. The myoclonus-like movement never recurred or caused any apparent neurological side effects. No abnormal sensation or spontaneous pain of the upper extremities was observed. The patient was discharged on foot on post-operative day 3.

ABSTRACT A 20 years old ASA I full term primigravida in labor, underwent an emergency lower segment cesarean section under spinal anesthesia, the indication being fetal distress. Immediately following delivery of fetus, she complained of severe breathlessness and suffered a cardiovascular collapse. A presumptive diagnosis of high spinal anesthesia was made and she was managed accordingly. Thirty minutes later she developed angioedema which increased in severity over the next two hours and a diagnosis of anaphylactic reaction was made. The patient responded to intravenous adrenaline and recovered over next 24 hours. The aim of this case report is to discuss cardiovascular collapse and its etiological factors, such as anaphylaxis, amniotic fluid embolism and high spinal anesthesia during cesarean section.
