Spine surgery drug showdown: which Blood-Pressure med wins?
NCT ID NCT06053398
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study looked at 101 adults having elective spine surgery to compare two medicines (norepinephrine and phenylephrine) used to keep blood pressure stable during the operation. The main goal was to see how much of each drug was needed. Researchers also checked if either drug led to kidney problems after surgery. The results help doctors choose the best option for patients.
