About this study

Official title: The Change in Femoral Artery Pulsatility Index as a Novel Predictor to Post-spinal Hypotension in Adult Patient Undergoing Infraumbilical Surgeries, a Prospective Observational Study

we aimed to evaluate the change in femoral artery pulsatility index as a predictor to post-spinal anesthesia hypotension

Read the detailed description

After spinal anesthesia, hypotension is a common effect that occurs in between 15 and 30% of patients therefore it is essential to prevent such effect.

number of variables were utilized for estimating post spinal hypotension, such as assessing heart rate variability, perfusion index, inferior vena cava collapsibility index; however, the majority of these indices needs advanced equipment.

investigator of current research decided to study the role of ultrasound derived index namely pulsatility index to predict post spinal anesthesia hypotension.

Being tested
femoral artery doppler

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • femoral artery dopplerDevice

    femoral artery pulse wave doppler to measure both pulsatility and resistive indices

What is being measured

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

  1. change in pulsatility index to predict post spinal anesthesia induced hypotension

    to measure PI before and after spinal anesthesia

    Measured: baseline and immediately after spinal anesthesia

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. change in resistive index to predict post spinal anesthesia induced hypotension

    to measure RI before and after spinal anesthesia

    Measured: baseline and immediately after spinal anesthesia

  2. change in waveform morphology to predict post spinal hypotension

    change of waveform morphology before and after spinal anesthesia

    Measured: before and immediately after spinal anesthesia

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Spinal Anesthesia Hypotension, run by Cairo University at 1 site in Egypt.

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 1 inclusion and 1 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 5 Nov 2024. 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 Egypt. 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?

change in pulsatility index to predict post spinal anesthesia induced hypotension (time frame: baseline and immediately after spinal anesthesia). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT06490666, which also lists 3 linked publications.

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 5 Nov 2024; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 28 Oct 2026.
