Blood pressure monitoring during cesarean delivery
Part of Heart & circulation, Kidney & urinary, Women’s health & pregnancy clinical trials.
This study tests a non-invasive blood pressure monitor during cesarean section under spinal anesthesia to see if it predicts low blood pressure after the procedure, which could help prevent dizziness and fainting.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are having a planned cesarean section (C-section)
- You are 18 years old or older
- You will receive spinal anesthesia (numbing medicine in your back) for the surgery
- You do not have high blood pressure disorders or fetal abnormalities
- You agree to participate in the study

This study checks if a simple neck ultrasound before your cesarean can predict if your blood pressure will drop during spinal anesthesia. This could help doctors prevent dizziness or low blood pressure during surgery.
This study tests a simple heart and blood pressure measurement to predict if blood pressure will drop after spinal anesthesia for hernia repair. It may help doctors prevent dizziness or fainting during surgery.
This study looks at whether certain simple measurements (called shock indexes) taken before your cesarean delivery can help predict if you might have a drop in blood pressure after you get spinal anesthesia. The goal is to help doctors take better care of moms like you during the surgery.
This study looks at how the position you are in during spinal anesthesia (numbing medicine for a cesarean section) affects your blood pressure. The goal is to find a better position to reduce the chance of dangerously low blood pressure after the spinal injection.
This trial checks if low vitamin D levels can make a drop in blood pressure more likely or severe during a C-section with spinal anesthesia. It may help find ways to better monitor or prevent blood pressure problems during surgery.
This study looks at whether a simple ultrasound measurement of blood flow in your neck can help predict if your blood pressure might drop during spinal anesthesia for a C-section. This could help doctors prevent dizziness and other side effects.
