Summary

This study compares whether measuring blood pressure continuously at the toe versus the arm better predicts newborn outcomes in women having planned C-sections under spinal anesthesia. Researchers will monitor 327 mothers with a noninvasive device on both a finger and a toe. The goal is to see if lower-extremity readings more accurately detect drops in blood pressure that could affect the baby's health right after birth.
