- NCT06797973RecruitingPhase 4
Morphine for pain after planned cesarean section
This trial studies whether giving a small dose of morphine into the spinal fluid during a planned cesarean section helps with pain after surgery. It aims to find a safe and effective way to manage pain for new mothers.

MontpellierAges 18 years+ - NCT07244354Enrolling by invitation
Maternal warmth after C-section and recovery
This study looks at whether keeping mothers warm after a C-section helps them recover faster. It compares standard care with a warmer blanket to see if it reduces shivering and improves comfort.
Oslo, OsloAges 18–50 - NCT06946914RecruitingPhase 4
Misoprostol before planned c-section
