The Effect of Intraoperative Hypotension on Postoperative Cognitive Functions in Cesarean Section Operations

NCT05843838 · Status: RECRUITING · Phase: NA · Type: INTERVENTIONAL · Enrollment: 150

Last updated 2024-02-08

No results posted yet for this study

Summary

The aim of the study is to see whether the hypotension that develops during spinal anesthesia in cesarean section patients causes a decrease in the postoperative cognitive functions of the patient. If the results show a decrease in functions due to the effect of hypotension, it will be necessary to carry out aggressive prevention/treatment of hypotension in cesarean section patients.

Conditions

  • Postoperative Cognitive Dysfunction

Interventions

PROCEDURE

Hypotension during spinal anesthesia for cesarean section

Hypotension, Mean Arterial Pressure\<65 mmHg, or Systolic arterial pressure \< 30% will be considered an initial value

DIAGNOSTIC_TEST

Mini-mental test

A Mini-Mental State test is a set of questions that doctors and other healthcare professionals commonly use to check for cognitive impairment (problems with thinking, communication, understanding and memory). At the end of the research, the mental test scores of the two groups will be compared and the effect of hypotension will be evaluated.

PROCEDURE

Spinal anesthesia

It is a neuraxial anesthesia technique in which local anesthetic is placed directly in the intrathecal space. Spinal anesthesia will be applied to both groups with heavy bupivacaine in usual doses.

DIAGNOSTIC_TEST

The Bromage scale

The Bromage scale is the accepted tool for motor block examination. The classification of these scores 1. complete block: unable to move feet or knees 2. almost complete: able to move feet only 3. partial: just able to flex knees; free movement of feet 4. no block: full movement of knees and feet

DRUG

Heavy Bupivacaine for spinal anesthesia

Routine clinical heavy bupivacaine doses
