Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (2)

  • Intraoperative nausea and vomiting (IONV)

    Spontaneous reporting of IONV by patients, as well as any clinical manifestations (retching or vomiting) and any requests for antiemetic medication will be considered as episodes of NV

    During CS

  • Postoperative nausea and vomiting (PONV)

    Spontaneous reporting of PONV by patients during scheduled interviews, as well as any clinical manifestations (retching or vomiting) and any requests for antiemetic medication will be considered as episodes of NV

    12 hours after CS

Secondary Outcomes (2)

  • Time of requiring antiemetics

    Until 12 hours postoperatively

  • Number of requiring antiemetics

    Until 12 hours postoperatively

Study Arms (2)

Atropine group

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

Patients will receive IV study solution which is 2 ml saline 0.9% as a placebo + intrathecal study solution which is a premised solution of 2.5 ml of 0.5% hyperbaric bupivacaine, 25 μg fentanyl and 100 μg of a 1 mg/ml preservative-free atropine sulfate solution

Drug: Atropine sulfate

Metoclopramide group

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

Patients in will receive IV study solution which is metoclopramide 10 mg in 2 ml + intrathecal study solution which is a premised solution of 2.5 ml of 0.5% hyperbaric bupivacaine, 25 μg fentanyl and 100 μg of preservative-free saline 0.9% as a placebo

Drug: Metoclopramide

Interventions

Patients will receive intrathecal 100 μg of a 1 mg/ml preservative-free atropine sulfate solution

Atropine group

Patients will receive IV metoclopramide 10 mg in 2 ml

Metoclopramide group
