Filter by:This noninferiority study aims to determine whether transversus abdominis plane (TAP) block with intrathecal fentanyl could provide a noninferior analgesia compared with intrathecal morphine after cesarean delivery under spinal anesthesia.
Ciechanowicz et al. developed and validated a postpartum recovery score for women with a caesarean section: the ObsQoR-11. The psychometric validation of the ObsQoR-11 confirms its reliability, its response to change, its acceptability and its feasibility. The use of this score allows the investigators to quantify the quality of the patient's recovery between 0 and 110, by allocating a score from 0 to 10 for each item. ObsQoR-11 has not yet been validated for use in Turkish. Therefore the investigators aimed to psychometrically evaluate the Turkish translated version of the ObsQoR-11 in a Turkish cohort of women.
The incidence of hypotension after spinal anesthesia is approximately 60% in parturients undergoing cesarean section. As a consequence of hypotension, nausea-vomiting, dyspnea and neurological deterioration in patients and low Apgar scores in newborns may occur. Therefore, there is an increasing interest to prevent maternal post spinal hypotension by using several drugs including noradrenaline given in different protocols to the patients undergoing spinal anesthesia for cesarean section. However, there is no conclusive answer to the question of which dosage is the best to prevent the maternal post spinal hypotension in literature. In this prospective randomized study, we aimed to compare different noradrenaline protocols for preventing maternal post spinal hypotension during elective cesarean delivery.
The purpose of this study was to compare the short term operative outcomes of three different surgical techniques for uterine incision closure during cesarean section (CS). This trial enrolled 120 patients scheduled for primary cesarean delivery. Patients were randomized into either classical double layer uterine closure, purse string double layer uterine closure (Turan), or our new approach of uterine closure (double layer step up-step down technique). For short term comparison, transvaginal ultrasonography was planned for all patients 6 weeks after surgery. Compared to group II and Group III, residual myometrial thickness was significantly thinner in group I (P< 0.001). The number of patients with uterine niche was 10 (50% of all scar defects) in group I whereas it was 4 (20%) in group II and 6 (30%) in group III. Operative time was significantly longer in group II (P< 0.001). This led to our conclusion that Turan technique and our new approach are associated with thicker myometrial thickness and less frequency of uterine scar defect than classical double layer uterine incision closure; however, our approach takes less operative time.
Research objectives To compare the efficacy of acupressure with no acupressure to examine time to first flatus in patient post cesarean section ; Acupressure at ST-36 Zusanli (lateral to anterior crest of tibia, in the tibialis anterior muscle) Research hypothesis Patients who received acupressure will have earlier flatus passage
Background: While caesarean sections are increasing, breast-feeding rates are decreasing. It is important to implement supportive programs to ensure mothers breast feed for the desired period and infants are fed by only mother's milk. Aim: In the research, it was aimed to evaluate the effects of lactation management models on mothers' breastfeeding process following a caesarean section. Methods: The research was conducted as a randomized controlled study and experimentally. Before implementation, Lactation Management Model was developed. Data collection was performed during gestation, first day after postpartum, pre-discharge, on 9th day in face to face interview and in the form of monthly phone interviews up to 6 months. While the experimental group exercised lactation management model, control group received routine lactation practices in clinic. Conclusions: Among the females in the experimental group, it was found that breastfeeding self-efficacy were higher, and breastfeeding techniques were accurate and successful and breastfeeding only and continuity rates were higher while breastfeeding related breast problems developed less frequently. Lactation management model should be used and expanded to increase breastfeeding rates. Keywords: Cesarean section, breastfeeding, mother milk, lactation management model, breastfeeding training
In this study aimed to demonstrate that atelectasis developing in the perioperative period of patients undergoing elective cesarean surgery with spinal or general anesthesia methods using lung ultrasound. After Preoperative lung ultrasounds of patients is done, the cesarean operation will be completed with spinal or general anesthesia. In the postoperative period, control lung ultrasounds will be performed and the ultrasound results will be compared in terms of atelectasis in both groups.
In this prospective randomized trial, investigators compared the analgesic effect of subanesthetic dose of ketamine versus placebo in parturients undergoing cesarean section under spinal anesthesia.
The purpose of this study is to specifically investigate whether oxytocin and mechanical dilation decreases the rate of cesarean section compared to misoprostol and mechanical dilation for pregnancies at risk of fetal compromise
The purpose of this research is to describe how patients recover after scheduled C-section for the first 3 months.
