Can a simple drug stop nausea during emergency C-Sections?
NCT ID NCT07740577
First seen Jul 31, 2026 · Last updated Jul 31, 2026
Summary
This trial tests whether giving a preventive anti-nausea drug before an emergency cesarean section under spinal anesthesia can reduce nausea, retching, or vomiting during surgery. It focuses on women who have not fasted, which may increase the risk of these symptoms. The study compares two common medications, ondansetron and metoclopramide, to see which works better. The goal is to improve comfort and safety for mothers during this procedure.
