About this study

In this study the investigator would like to examine hemodynamic cerebral blood flow and brain function by the use of Invos cerebral oximetry in women undergoing cesarean section delivery.

This study is a purely observational study, it will not have any clinical intervention nor will it interfere with standard cesarean delivery protocols in any way.

The investigator's primary objective is to evaluate how anesthesia influences cerebral blood flow perfusion during cesarean section deliveries.

Read the detailed description

This is a prospective, single center study which will be conducted at the Rabin Medical Center (Beilinson Campus), Petach Tikva, Israel, a tertiary university hospital. The Institutional Review Board has approved this study.

Two hundred women undergoing cesarean sections will be enrolled after filling out an informed consent form.

Cerebral blood flow perfusion will be monitored preoperatively, intraoperativly and half an hour postoperativly, for all enrolled participants using INVOS Cerebral Oximetry.

Preoperative data will be compared to intraoperative data and analyzed in order to evaluate the dynamic cerebral oxygen and blood perfusion changes in women undergoing cesarean sections.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 1 inclusion and 1 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 10 May 2016. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in Israel. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

measure the cerebral perfusion in participants undergoing cesarean sections deliveries, under spinal anesthesia, epidural anesthesia, and general anesthesia (time frame: The average time frame is 24 hours.). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT02473978, which also lists 20 linked publications.

Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?
