Ondansetron to prevent low blood pressure during C-section
Treatments studied
Part of Heart & circulation clinical trials.
This study tests if giving ondansetron, a common anti-nausea drug, before spinal anesthesia for a planned C-section can help prevent dangerously low blood pressure. This may make the procedure safer and more comfortable for you and your baby.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are between 19 and 40 years old
- You are pregnant with one baby and at least 37 weeks along
- You are scheduled for a planned cesarean section (C-section)
- Your vital signs and lab tests are normal
- You have no conditions that make spinal anesthesia risky, such as bleeding problems or heart disease
