NCT ID NCT07037654
First seen Jun 25, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This trial tests whether ondansetron, given as a dissolving film under the tongue, can prevent low blood pressure caused by spinal anesthesia during cesarean sections. 112 women scheduled for elective C-sections will receive either the drug or a placebo before anesthesia. The main goal is to see if it reduces the need for ephedrine, a drug used to raise blood pressure.
