Thoracic vs Lumbar Spinal Anesthesia for Cesarean Delivery
Sponsor: Adiyaman University Research Hospital
Summary
This randomized controlled trial aims to compare the effects of thoracic segmental spinal anesthesia and conventional lumbar spinal anesthesia on postoperative recovery in patients undergoing elective cesarean section. Postoperative recovery will be assessed using the ObsQoR-11 score. Hemodynamic parameters, vasopressor and anticholinergic requirements, perioperative complications, and mobilization time will also be evaluated.
