Eye scan may spot headache risk after C-Section spinal
NCT ID NCT07497945
First seen Jun 25, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This study looks at whether a simple, non-invasive eye ultrasound can predict which women will get a headache after spinal anesthesia during a C-section. Researchers will measure the optic nerve sheath diameter in 220 women at several times before and after surgery. They will then check if those measurements are linked to headaches. The goal is to find a way to identify at-risk patients early.
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 give doctors a simple, non-invasive way to identify patients at risk for headache after spinal anesthesia, allowing earlier care.
What could go wrong
This is an observational study, not a treatment trial. It only tests if a measurement predicts headache; it does not test any new drug or therapy. Results may not apply to all patients.
