Clinical Trial Summary

The establishment of the Enhanced Recovery After Cesarean protocols resulted in to the production of specific care pathways with the aim of optimizing recovery after cesarean delivery (CD) and to reduce the costs to the health care system. Carbohydrate rich fluids are offered in this aspect to enhance postoperative quality of recovery. The primary aim of this randomised control trial is to assess the impact of pre-operative carbohydrate loading on obstetric quality of recovery after elective cesarean section.

Description:

The 10-item Obstetric Quality-of-Recovery scale is a validated patient-reported outcome questionnaire that evaluates recovery quality after delivery. Carbohydrate loading before the surgery in obstetric patients reduce the incidence of nausea and vomiting and reduce insulin resistance. The shortened pre-operative fasting period, in addition to the positive metabolic effects, enhance the post-operative recovery and shorten the hospital stay. Postoperatively, it is also crucial for the mother to heal rapidly and be able to care for her child on her own. Although a lot of effects of the preoperative carbohydrate loading has been studied yet, the OQR-10 scale and after carbohydrate loading has not been investigated yet.

All mothers undergoing a planned CD in the Karaman Training and Research Hospital will be invited to participate. Mothers will be divided into two groups. One group will receive carbohydrate solution ( Carb Group) and the other will consume same amount of placebo fluid (Noncarb Group).

The aim of this study is to determine the effect of carbonhydrate rich solutions on quality of recovery of parturients undergoing elective CD with Obstetric Quality of Recovery-10 (ObsQoR-10) Scoring Tool.

Outcome

Type	Measure	Description	Time frame	Safety issue
Primary	Obstetric Quality of Recovery-10 (ObsQoR-10) score 24 hours	ObsQoR-10 score at 24 hours after surgery for both parturients consumed carbohydrate rich solution or placebo fluid. There are 10 questions, and the results are tabulated out of 100. The higher the overall score out of 100, the better quality of recovery a patient is experiencing.	24 hours
Secondary	Obstetric Quality of Recovery-10 (ObsQoR-10) score 72 hours	ObsQoR-10 score at 72 hours after surgery for both parturients consumed carbohydrate rich solution or placebo fluid. There are 10 questions, and the results are tabulated out of 100. The higher the overall score out of 100, the better quality of recovery a patient is experiencing.	72 hours
Secondary	Obstetric Quality of Recovery-10 (ObsQoR-10) score 7 days	ObsQoR-10 score at 7 days after surgery for both parturients consumed carbohydrate rich solution or placebo fluid. There are 10 questions, and the results are tabulated out of 100. The higher the overall score out of 100, the better quality of recovery a patient is experiencing.	7 days
Secondary	Hospital discharge	The parturients will be discharged from the hospital after they met the discharge criteria. This parameter reported as number of days after the operation to the day in which the patient met discharge criteria.	7 days
