Sponsor

Dow University of Health Sciences

Enrollment

124 participants

Start Date

Dec 31, 2024

Study Type

INTERVENTIONAL

Conditions

Spinal Anesthesia Induced Hypotension

Summary

The goal of this clinical trial is to learn if norepinephrine is more effective than phenylephrine for prevention of spinal anesthesia induced hypotension. The main questions it aims to answer are: Does norepinephrine lower the incidence of spinal anesthesia induced hypotension in emergency obstetrical patients? We will compare effectiveness of norepinephrine and phenylephrine for the prevention of spinal anesthesia induced hypotension. Participants will: Be administered prophylactic boluses of both drugs right after spinal anesthesia induction and maternal hemodynamic parameters and neonatal APGAR scores will be recorded

Interventions

DRUGNorepinephrine Bolus

Prophylactic norepinephrine bolus of 8 micrograms will be administered right after spinal anesthesia induction. Rescue bolus of norepinephrine 4 micrograms will be administered in case of hypotension.

DRUGPhenylephrine bolus

Prophylactic phenylephrine bolus of 100 micrograms will be administered right after spinal anesthesia induction. Rescue bolus of phenylephrine 50 micrograms will be administered in case of hypotension.
