About this study

Official title: Effect of Position During Spinal Anesthesia on Hemodynamic Change in Pregnant Women Undergoing Cesarean Section: Randomized Trial

Hypotension is the most common complications after spinal anesthesia especially in pregnant patients who undergoing cesarean section. Position during spinal anesthesia may be altering the hemodynamic. For right lateral decubitus, the enlarged uterus compresses inferior vena cava that may decrease venous return and cardiac output. This leads to hypotension.The hypothesis is the right lateral position during spinal anesthesia in pregnant women will be had hemodynamic changing more than the left lateral position. This objective is to compare hemodynamic change between left and right lateral position during spinal anesthesia in pregnant women undergoing cesarean section.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Hypotension

    Systolic blood pressure lower than 90 mmHg or decrease more than 20% of baseline

    Measured: after bupivacaine injection until 15 minutes after spinal anesthesia

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Ephedrine consumption

    Total amount of ephedrine receiving

    Measured: intraoperative

  2. Apgar score at first minute and fifth minute

    Measured: Child delivery at first minute and fifth minute

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Right and Left in people with Hypotension, run by Prince of Songkla University at 1 site in Thailand.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 3 inclusion and 4 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 29 Apr 2015. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in Thailand. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Hypotension (time frame: after bupivacaine injection until 15 minutes after spinal anesthesia). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 29 Apr 2015.
