Trial summary

Spinal block leads to the reduction of systemic vascular resistance (SVR) which may effect the cardiac output. Ngan Kee et al. has showed that spina block with 0.5% hyperbaric bupivacaine for Cesarean section combined with intravenous infusion norepinephrine had higher cardiac output than those who received… Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Cardiac Output Changes During Hyperbaric and Isobaric Bupivacaine in Patients Undergoing Cesarean Section: An Randomization Trials

Spinal block leads to the reduction of systemic vascular resistance (SVR) which may effect the cardiac output. Ngan Kee et al. has showed that spina block with 0.5% hyperbaric bupivacaine for Cesarean section combined with intravenous infusion norepinephrine had higher cardiac output than those who received phenylephrine

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Change of cardiac output (L/min) after spinal block

    The investigators will measure cardiac output using non-invasive methods (USCOM) before spinal block and 5 minutes after spinal block.

    Measured: 5 minutes after spinal block

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Total dose of vasopressor

    The investigators will record the total dose that treat hypotension during preoperative period

    Measured: 2 hours

  2. Number of patients who experience systolic blood pressure < 25% of preoperative measurement

    The investigators will monitor blood pressure at interval; before spinal block, then after spinal block every 1 minute for 10 for 10 times, every 2 minute for 5 times, every 3 minutes until delivery then every 5 minutes til the end of surgery. If the patient's systolic blood pressure is declined, vasopressor will be given.

    Measured: 2 hours

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing Isobaric marcaine and Hyperbaric marcaine in people with Cardiac Output and Hypotension, run by Mahidol University at 1 site in Thailand.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 4 inclusion and 3 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 31 Jul 2017. 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 Thailand. 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.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 4 studies take place after a treatment is approved, to learn more about its long-term benefits and risks in everyday use.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

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?

Change of cardiac output (L/min) after spinal block (time frame: 5 minutes after spinal block). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
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?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 31 Jul 2017.
