General anesthesia for trauma prevention during C-section
Part of Injuries & trauma, Mental health clinical trials.
This study tests if giving general anesthesia early during a C-section can reduce traumatic experiences for women who feel severe pain despite standard pain relief options.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

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: one is a medicine given in the spinal fluid, and the other is a numbing injection in the belly wall. It aims to find which method provides better pain relief with fewer side effects.
This study compares two ways to reduce anxiety and stress during a planned C-section: using a virtual reality headset versus a sedative medicine given through an IV. It aims to see which approach helps mothers feel calmer and supports better outcomes for both mom and baby.
This study tests whether giving anti-nausea medicine before a C-section with spinal anesthesia can prevent nausea and vomiting from the pain medication (morphine) used during the procedure. If you are having a planned C-section, this may help you feel more comfortable afterward.
This study tests a special nerve treatment (called neural therapy) given during a C-section to see if it helps reduce pain and improve recovery after delivery. It is for women having their first or second C-section under general anesthesia.
This study is gathering information from pregnant people who had general anesthesia (being completely asleep) during a C-section. It helps researchers learn more about how to improve care for others in the future.
