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 Results may not be published yet.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.

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 compares two ways of giving spinal anesthesia for planned C-sections: the standard single injection versus a sequential (two-part) injection. The goal is to see if the sequential method reduces the chance of a sudden drop in blood pressure, a common and risky side effect. About 94 women aged 18-45 will take part, and their blood pressure will be monitored closely after the injection.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance
bupivacaine and fentanyl (spinal anesthetic)
What this could lead to
If it works, this could lead to a safer spinal anesthesia technique for C-sections, reducing the risk of dangerous blood pressure drops.
What could go wrong
This is a small, early-phase trial with only 94 participants, so results may not apply to all patients. The sequential method may also be more complex to perform.
