NCT ID NCT06357546

First seen Mar 20, 2026 · Last updated May 16, 2026 · Updated 7 times

Summary

This study looks at whether it's safe to avoid placing a bladder catheter during planned cesarean sections. About 550 pregnant women having a planned C-section will be randomly assigned to either get the usual catheter or skip it. The goal is to see if skipping the tube leads to more women needing a catheter later for urine retention, while also aiming to make the birth experience more comfortable.
