Comparing two doses of norepinephrine for low blood pressure during C-section
Part of Heart & circulation clinical trials.
This trial tests whether a higher or lower dose of norepinephrine works better to treat dangerously low blood pressure that can happen during a C-section. If you are a healthy full-term mother having a planned C-section, you may be able to join.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are pregnant with one full-term baby
- You are scheduled for a planned (elective) cesarean delivery
- You are generally healthy and classified as ASA II (mild systemic disease, well-controlled)
- You do not have uncontrolled heart problems, high blood pressure in pregnancy, active bleeding, or bleeding disorders
- Your starting blood pressure is at least 100 mmHg systolic

This study compares two common medicines—epinephrine and norepinephrine—given as a continuous infusion during planned C-section to see which one keeps your blood pressure more stable. If you're a full-term mom having a planned C-section, this trial may help your care team choose the best option for you.
This trial tests two different doses of the drug noradrenaline to see which works better at preventing dangerously low blood pressure after spinal anesthesia for a planned C-section. This is for women who are at least 37 weeks pregnant and within a certain weight and height range.
This study compares two medicines (norepinephrine and phenylephrine) given continuously through a vein to keep your blood pressure stable during a planned cesarean with spinal anesthesia. It aims to see which medicine works better for you and your baby.
This trial looks at whether we can predict which pregnant women will have a sudden drop in blood pressure during a cesarean section. If you're a healthy pregnant woman with a full-term single baby, this study could help improve safety.
This study tests whether a drug called norepinephrine can safely treat a drop in blood pressure that can happen during general anesthesia in people with chronic heart failure. It focuses on patients whose heart's pumping ability is weakened (ejection fraction 40% or less) and who are having planned surgery.
This trial compares giving norepinephrine alone versus norepinephrine plus ephedrine to keep your blood pressure stable during a planned C-section under spinal anesthesia. It may help find the best way to prevent low blood pressure during delivery.
