What the study statuses mean

This study's is highlighted.

Recruitment status, easiest to join first

Recruiting now
This trial is taking on new participants right now.
Not yet recruiting This study
Registered, but not yet taking participants.
By invitation only
Not open to general applications. Only people the study team invites can take part.
Paused
Paused for now. It may or may not start again.
Ongoing
Running, but no longer taking on new participants.
Completed
The trial has finished. Results may not be published yet.
Stopped early
Stopped early, before it reached the end. That can be for many reasons, including safety.
Cancelled
Cancelled before anyone took part.

Expanded access (not trials)

Expanded access
Not a trial. This treatment can be requested outside a study, case by case, for people who qualify.
Expanded access (paused)
Not a trial. The treatment can normally be requested outside a study, but is unavailable right now.
Expanded access (ended)
Not a trial. The treatment could once be requested outside a study, but no longer can.

Summary

This study aims to create a risk prediction model for low blood pressure (hypotension) after spinal anesthesia in women undergoing planned cesarean delivery. Researchers monitor heart rate, blood pressure, perfusion index, and ECG/SpO₂ waveforms before and during surgery to identify high-risk patients. The goal is to help doctors take preventive steps, such as giving medications or increasing monitoring, to protect both mother and baby.

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 successful, this could help doctors identify women at high risk for dangerous blood pressure drops during C-sections, allowing early preventive care.
What could go wrong
This is an observational study, not a treatment trial. The prediction model may not be accurate enough for widespread use and needs further validation.
