New anesthesia technique may speed up C-Section recovery

NCT ID NCT07567612

First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026

Summary

This study tests whether giving spinal anesthesia at a different spot in the back (thoracic vs. lumbar) helps women recover better after a planned cesarean section. Fifty pregnant women will be randomly assigned to one of two groups. The main goal is to see if the new approach improves recovery quality and reduces side effects like low blood pressure.

Active substance
Thoracic segmental spinal anesthesia (procedure)
What this could lead to
If successful, this could show that a different spinal injection site improves recovery and reduces side effects after cesarean section.
What could go wrong
This is a small, early-stage trial with only 50 participants. The results may not apply to all patients, and the procedure carries standard risks of spinal anesthesia.
