This study tests whether a nerve block in the lower belly wall (transversalis fascia plane block) or a medication injected into the spinal fluid (intrathecal dexmedetomidine) provides better pain relief for mothers having a planned cesarean section under spinal anesthesia.
This study compares two ways to manage pain after a planned cesarean section: a nerve block near the spine (ESPB) versus morphine injected into the spinal fluid. The goal is to find which method helps mothers recover more comfortably.
This study tests different doses of morphine given through a spinal injection during a planned C-section to find the best balance of pain relief and side effects. It may help women have better pain control after surgery.
This study compares two ways to manage pain after a planned cesarean section: a shot of morphine given into the spinal fluid versus a local anesthetic injected into the belly wall (TAP block). The goal is to see which provides better pain relief with fewer side effects.
This trial compares two ways to manage pain after a planned cesarean section: one combines a spinal and epidural injection, the other is a newer type of nerve block. The goal is to see which provides better pain relief with fewer side effects.
This study compares a nerve block with standard spinal morphine to see which provides better pain relief after a planned C-section. It may help you recover with less pain and fewer side effects.
