Brief Summary

Hypotension is the most frequent side effect of intrathecal anesthesia, with a found incidence of more than 80%. With a frequency of between 40% and 60% in patients undergoing surgery, Perioperative shivering is a serious consequence that frequently follows neuraxial anesthesia. This study aimed to determine the multiple advantages of intravenous minimal dose ketamine for intrathecal anesthesia in patients undergoing cesarean delivery

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Hemodynamics

    Primary outcomes: Hemodynamic parameters (MAP and HR). Secondary outcomes 1. Incidence of intraoperative shivering. 2. The postoperative pain was assessed by VAS score. 3. Sedation score in between groups. 4. Fetus evaluated by Apgar score. 5. Postoperative side effects as nausea, vomiting, nystagmus, diplopia, and hallucinations.

    Up to 24 hours after operation
