Summary

This study compares two types of spinal anesthesia (hyperbaric vs. isobaric bupivacaine) to see which one causes fewer dangerous drops in blood pressure during planned C-sections. Sixty healthy pregnant women will receive one of the two drugs, and researchers will monitor their blood pressure, heart rate, and need for extra medications. The goal is to find a safer option for mothers and their babies.
