Blood gas analysis during cesarean delivery anesthesia
This study looks at blood gas levels (oxygen and carbon dioxide in the blood) in women having a cesarean delivery. It aims to compare the effects of spinal versus general anesthesia on blood gas readings.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are an adult woman having a cesarean delivery at the study center.
- You will receive either spinal or general anesthesia for the delivery.
- Your anesthesia will not be changed from spinal to general due to pain during surgery.

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.
This study is looking at how well a new, non-invasive monitor measures pain and anxiety in women during a planned cesarean delivery under spinal anesthesia. It may help doctors better understand and manage pain and anxiety during the procedure.
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 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 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.
This study builds a tool to predict if blood pressure will drop during a planned cesarean with spinal anesthesia, using heart rate, blood pressure, and other non-invasive monitors. If you participate, the team will track your vital signs during the procedure to help improve safety and comfort for future mothers.
