Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (1)
Incidence of hypotension
blood pressure will be measured every 3 minutes within the first 30 minutes after spinal block the every 5 minutes till the end of the caesarian section. postoperatively will be checked every 15 minutes in the first hour the every 30 minutes till the recovery from spinal block
within first 24 hours after spinal anesthesia
Secondary Outcomes (4)
Frequency of bradycardia
within first 24 hours after spinal anesthesia
Ephedrine usage
within first 24 hours after spinal anesthesia
intraoperative fluid management
within first 24 hours after spinal anesthesia
Apgar scores
within first 24 hours after spinal anesthesia
Study Arms (2)
Group A
PLACEBO COMPARATORThis group will include patients with orthostatic hypotension and will be managed with routine spinal anesthesia Ephedrine will be used for management of intraoperative hypotension
Group B
ACTIVE COMPARATORThis group will include patients with orthostatic hypotension and will be managed with prophylaxis single dose of phenylephrine, 50 ug IV, will be administered immediately before the spinal block then the patients will be managed with routine spinal anesthesia Ephedrine will be used for management of intraoperative hypotension
Interventions
it will be given as a prophylaxis for prevention of hypotension after spinal anesthesia in pregnant patients undergoing cesarean section
