Comparing two ways to give oxytocin during C-section
Part of Women’s health & pregnancy clinical trials.
This trial compares two ways of giving oxytocin (a medicine that helps the uterus contract) during a C-section done under spinal anesthesia. The goal is to see which method has less effect on your heart rate and blood pressure.

This study compares two ways of giving oxytocin (a medicine to help the uterus contract) during a planned C-section under spinal anesthesia. It aims to see which method keeps blood pressure more stable.
This trial compares two drugs, oxytocin and carbetocin, to see which one better controls blood pressure and heart rate changes during cesarean section surgery. Both medicines help the uterus contract after delivery to reduce bleeding.
This study compares two doses of oxytocin (a medicine given during cesarean section to prevent heavy bleeding) to see which works better for women with high-risk pregnancies. If you are having a planned cesarean and have certain risk factors, this trial may help find the best dose for you.
This trial compares giving oxytocin as a single injection versus a slow drip during C-sections in people at high risk for heavy bleeding after delivery. The goal is to find which method works better to prevent postpartum hemorrhage.
This trial tests two different spinal anesthesia techniques to see which one better prevents low blood pressure during planned cesarean delivery. It aims to improve safety and comfort for mothers.
This trial compares two forms of a numbing medicine (bupivacaine) given through a spinal shot before a planned C-section. It aims to see which one causes less of a drop in blood pressure after the medicine is given.
