Could a simple patch replace a tube in the artery during c-sections?
NCT ID NCT06473818
First seen Jun 26, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This study looked at 45 women having planned C-sections under spinal anesthesia. Researchers compared a non-invasive monitor (using a patch on the chest) with an invasive monitor (using a tube in the wrist artery) to see if they gave similar readings of heart function. The goal was to find out if the non-invasive method could be a reliable, safer alternative.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.
- What this could lead to
- If the non-invasive monitor proves reliable, it could replace invasive methods, making monitoring safer and more comfortable for women during C-sections.
- What could go wrong
- This is a small, completed observational study with only 45 participants. Results may not apply to all patients or settings, and the non-invasive device might not match the invasive one closely enough.
