Measure
Ondansetron 4 mg IV - Pregnant
Ondansetron 4 mg was given intravenously prior to delivery of the infant.
Ondansetron 8 mg IV - Pregnant
Ondansetron 8 mg was given intravenously prior to delivery of the infant.
Non-pregnant Women - 8 mg Ondansetron
As a comparison for pharmacokinetics, a non-pregnant group was enrolled and received ondansetron. 8 mg ondansetron
Non-pregnant Women - 4 mg Ondansetron
As a comparison for pharmacokinetics, a non-pregnant group was enrolled and received ondansetron. 4 mg ondansetron
Neonates
The neonates became part of the subject population after birth. They were subsequently sampled for pharmacokinetic samples.

Baseline Characteristics

How Pregnant Women and Their Babies Metabolize Ondansetron Compared to a Group of Non-pregnant Women

Baseline characteristics by cohort

Baseline characteristics by cohort
Measure
Pregnant Women
n=40 Participants
Full term pregnant women scheduled for Cesarean section and will be given Ondansetron as standard-of-care prior to surgery. Ondansetron: Pregnant women will receive either 4mg or 8mg of Ondansetron (IV) once prior to surgical procedure (open-label). Women are in the study for 8 hours.
Non-pregnant Women
n=20 Participants
Non-pregnant women scheduled for surgery at Stanford who will be given Ondansetron prior to their surgery as standard-of-care. Ondansetron: non-pregnant women will receive either 4mg or 8mg of Ondansetron (IV) once prior to surgical procedure (open-label). Women are in the study for 8 hours.
Neonates
n=39 Participants
Babies of the pregnant women enrolled in the study; no ondansetron is given to babies in this "Aim 1" of the study. Babies of pregnant women are not given Ondansetron but are in the study for 24-48 hours.

PRIMARY outcome

Timeframe: 8 hours for women; 48 hours for neonate.

Population: All subjects but not possible for neonates

This is an estimated pharmacokinetic parameter as calculated by NONMEM.

Outcome measures

Outcome measures
Measure
Women - Pregnant/Non-pregnant
n=60 Participants
Ondansetron 4 mg or 8mg was given intravenously prior to delivery of her baby in pregnant women and was given to age similar women in the non-pregnant group.
Neonates
n=39 Participants
The neonates became part of the subject population after birth. They were subsequently sampled for pharmacokinetic samples.
Volume of Distribution Estimated Pharmacokinetic Parameter
27.9 Liters
Interval 18.5 to 37.3
NA Liters
Sampling schedule and dose route would not allow mathematical estimation.

PRIMARY outcome

Timeframe: 8 hours for women; 48 hours for neonate.

Population: All patient data was used in the estimation process.

This is a mathematical estimation of the clearance for ondasetron as calculated by NONMEM.

Measure

Neonates
n=39 Participants
The neonates became part of the subject population after birth. They were subsequently sampled for pharmacokinetic samples.
Metabolic Clearance of Ondasetron
21.8 L/hr
Interval 18.9 to 24.6
NA L/hr
The lack of a direct dose of ondansetron and sufficient sampling made it incorrect to estimate a clearance in the neonate.
