  • Title: Intrathecal morphine analgesia and low-dose dopamine for oliguria in severe maternal pulmonary hypertension. A case report.
    Author: Leduc L, Kirshon B, Diaz SF, Cotton DB.
    Journal: J Reprod Med; 1990 Jul; 35(7):727-9. PubMed ID: 2376860.
    Abstract:
    Maternal pulmonary hypertension can be life threatening, and many problems and complications can occur during labor and delivery as well as postpartum. A case of severe maternal pulmonary hypertension was monitored with a pulmonary artery catheter. Intrathecal morphine was administered for labor analgesia, and low-dose dopamine was utilized for maternal oliguria. Neither the morphine nor the dopamine resulted in adverse maternal hemodynamic effects. Both analgesia and resolution of the oliguria were accomplished.
