Filter by:This will be a prospective randomized study, aiming at comparing an intrathecal fixed dose of chloroprocaine 1% versus an intrathecal fixed dose of ropivacaine 0.75% in elective cesarean sections
The goal of this observational study is to evaluate preoperative measures of abdominal circumference in patients admitted for a cesarean section. The main questions it aims to answer are: - Can preoperative abdominal circumference predict patients with difficult spinal anesthesia - Can preoperative abdominal circumference predict the occurrence of maternal hypotension during cesarean section Participants will be examined preoperatively in terms of visibility and palpation of spinous processes, abdominal circumference will be measured in the supine and sitting positions with other clinical parameters. Spinal anesthesia will be performed by the same experienced anesthesiologist with a standardized procedure. The number of skin punctures, needle reorientations, traumatic Cerebrospinal fluid, need for a paramedian approach or failure will be recorded. Maternal blood pressure and vasopressor requirements will also be monitored.
Spinal anesthesia is widely accepted as the anesthetic method of choice for Cesarean section. However, the incidence of spinal hypotension is 50-70%, and the decrease in blood pressure is often rapid and severe. Heart rate variability is influenced by various factors such as the sympathetic nervous system, parasympathetic nervous system, temperature regulation, baroreflex, and endocrine regulation, but high frequency heart rate variability above 0.15 Hz very specifically reflects the parasympathetic nervous system. The ANI monitor calculates heart rate variability mediated by changes in the parasympathetic nervous system. This study aims to determine whether ANI monitor can predict hypotension in patients undergoing a caesarean section under spinal anaesthesia while applying the preemptive vasopressor phenylephrine infusion protocol.
It is known that maintaining and maintaining normal body temperature in women after cesarean section facilitates the mother's adaptation to the postpartum period. One of the important problems after cesarean section is hypothermia. Therefore, various methods are used to maintain normal body temperature. One of these methods is the use of electric blankets. This study will investigate the effect of using electric blankets after cesarean section on postpartum comfort, pain, milk quantity and breastfeeding success.
In Denmark, around 12,700 patients undergo Cesarean delivery (CD) annually, constituting approximately 20% of all childbirths in the country. Worldwide, the number is increasing each year, with more than 20 million CD performed annually. Postoperative pain after CD is typically moderate to severe in intensity and still constitutes a significant challenge, balancing effective pain relief and potential side effects. Correlations between moderate to severe acute pain and the development of persistent pain after CD is still unclear. Postsurgical persistent pain is a significant, often unrecognized clinical problem that causes distress and diminishes the quality of life for patients. Despite advances in understanding the factors contributing to persistent postsurgical pain and an increased focus on identifying patients at risk, the management and prevention of postsurgical persistent pain are still inadequate. It is important to gain further insights into this population, and we have a unique opportunity to do so by following the national cohort from the ongoing Danish multicenter cohort study on pain after cesarean section (ClinicalTrials.gov Identifier: NCT06012747) over an extended follow-up period. This involves continued prospective registration of Patient-Reported Outcome Measures (PROM) collected by SMS-based questionnaires in the months and years after the CD, thereby investigating the occurrence of both acute and persistent pain after CD. The outcomes are focused on pain levels, the impact of pain on physical function and neuropathic pain characteristics in the months and years following the CD. The study also aims to explore the relationship between persistent and acute pain.
The goal of this randomized controlled trial is to examine the effect of preoperative virtual reality used before cesarean on postoperative pain and anxiety. The main question[s] it aims to answer are: - What is the anxiety level of women in the intervention and control groups after using virtual reality? - What is the pain level of women in the intervention and control groups after using virtual reality? Women in the intervention group will be shown a relaxing video accompanied by virtual reality glasses before cesarean. No intervention will be applied to women in the control group. Researchers will compare pre- and post-operative anxiety levels and post-operative pain levels of both groups.
The aim of this study is to assess the efficacy and potency of lidocaine infusion as a preventive measure on pruritus response after injection of 200 micro gram morphine with bupivacaine subarachnoid block, spinal anesthesia, in cesarean section.
Cesarean section (CS) is one of the most frequently performed surgical procedures in the World. Moderate to severe postoperative pain occurs in a significant proportion of women after cesarean surgery. The analgesic effectiveness of TAP block has been demonstrated after cesarean section operations. m-TAPA block has been described as an alternative analgesic technique in abdominal surgeries. The aim of this study is to compare these two analgesic methods in terms of effectiveness for postoperative analgesia management after cesarean section.
The aim of this study is to examine the effect of back massage application after cesarean section on women's pain, anxiety, sleep, breastfeeding, comfort, uterine involution process and physiological parameters. This research is a randomized controlled experimental type study with a pretest-posttest control group. In the research, after obtaining the necessary permissions and the ethics committee report, the application will be carried out to women who have given birth by cesarean section at the State Hospital and meet the criteria for inclusion in the study. Personal Information Form, Richard Campbell Sleep Scale, Trait-Trait Anxiety Inventory, Postpartum Comfort Scale, Bristol Breastfeeding Evaluation Tool, Visual Analog Scale for Pain, Uterine Involution Evaluation Form, Physiological Parameter Form will be used in the research.
Cesarean section (CS) is one of the most frequently performed surgical procedures in the World. Moderate to severe postoperative pain occurs in a significant proportion of women after cesarean surgery. Modified Perichondral Approach Thoracoabdominal Nerve (M-TAPA) block performed with ultrasound (US) is a novel technique that provides effective analgesia in the anterior and lateral thoracoabdominal areas, where local anesthetic is applied only to the lower side of the perichondral surface. M-TAPA block is a good alternative for analgesia of the upper dermatome levels and the abdominal lateral Wall, provides analgesia in the abdominal area at the T5-T11 level. The aim of this study is to evaluate the effectiveness of US-guided M-TAPA block for postoperative analgesia management after cesarean section.
