First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Aug 04, 2026 · Updated 2 times
Summary
This study follows 310 women having planned C-sections with spinal anesthesia. Researchers will ask them about any sensations they feel during surgery, how intense they are, and whether they find them unacceptable. Participants also complete questionnaires about mood and well-being up to 6 months after birth. The goal is to better understand and potentially improve the birth experience.
