About this study

Official title: Intensive Versus Standard Treatment for Spinal Anesthesia-induced Hypotension on Maternal and Neonatal Outcomes During Cesarean Section: A Multicenter, Prospective, Single-blind, Randomized, Controlled Trial

The objective of this study is to investigate the impact of varying maternal blood pressure maintenance targets on neonatal outcomes following cesarean section.

Read the detailed description

Post-spinal anesthesia hypotension is a frequent complication during spinal anesthesia for cesarean section. The incidence of post-spinal anesthesia hypotension is as high as 62.1-89.7% if prophylactic measures are not taken. The 2016 ASA guidelines for obstetric anesthesia suggest avoiding hypotension following spinal anesthesia in women and emphasize the use of vasopressors, specifically alpha-receptor agonists, as the preferred strategy to prevent and manage post-spinal anesthesia hypotension. The 2018 International Consensus in the United Kingdom and Northern Ireland recommends maintaining maternal systolic blood pressure above 90% of the baseline value following lumbar anesthesia, while avoiding dropping below 80% of the baseline value. Currently, the threshold for maintaining blood pressure above 80% of the baseline value is widely adopted as a standard; however, limited evidence supports the advantage of sustaining maternal blood pressure above 90% of the baseline value. The objective of this study is to investigate the impact of varying maternal blood pressure maintenance targets on neonatal outcomes following cesarean section.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • Alpha-AgonistDrug

    Also called Vasopressors

    The maternal systolic blood pressure was consistently maintained above 80% of the preoperative baseline value from the initiation of spinal anesthesia until fetal delivery.

  • α-adrenergic receptor agonistOther

    Also called Vasopressors

    The maternal systolic blood pressure was consistently maintained above 90% of the preoperative baseline value from the initiation of spinal anesthesia until fetal delivery.

What is being measured

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

  1. pH

    From umbilical arterial blood gases.

    Measured: Immediately after delivery

  2. Base excess

    From umbilical arterial blood gases.

    Measured: Immediately after delivery

Secondary outcomes (8)
  1. The incidence of post-spinal anesthesia hypotension

    Systolic blood pressure (SBP) < 80% of the baseline

    Measured: 1-15 minutes after spinal anesthesia

  2. The incidence of severe post-spinal anesthesia hypotension.

    Systolic blood pressure (SBP) < 60% of the baseline.

    Measured: 1-15 minutes after spinal anesthesia

  3. The incidence of bradycardia.

    Heart rate < 50 beats/min.

    Measured: 1-15 minutes after spinal anesthesia

  4. The incidence of nausea and vomiting.

    Presence of nausea and vomiting in patients after spinal anesthesia

    Measured: 1-15 minutes after spinal anesthesia

  5. The incidence of hypertension.

    Systolic blood pressure (SBP) >120% of the baseline.

    Measured: 1-15 minutes after spinal anesthesia

  6. Partial pressure of oxygen (PO2)

    From umbilical arterial blood gases.

    Measured: Immediately after delivery

  7. APGAR score

    A= Appearance P=Pulse G=Grimace A=Attitude R=Respiration; 0(Worst)-10(Best)

    Measured: 1 min after delivery

  8. APGAR score

    A= Appearance P=Pulse G=Grimace A=Attitude R=Respiration; 0(Worst)-10(Best)

    Measured: 5 min after delivery

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Alpha-Agonist and α-adrenergic receptor agonist in people with Outcome, run by General Hospital of Ningxia Medical University at 1 site in China.

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 0 inclusion and 5 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 21 Aug 2024. 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 China. 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?

pH (time frame: Immediately after delivery). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. 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 21 Aug 2024.
