Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
To assess the incidence of oxytocin induced hypotension during caesarean section under spinal anaesthesia in parturients by comparing the effects of co-administration of oxytocin with phenylephrine 50µg or 75µg.Timepoint: Every 2min after the SAB till baby extraction and up to 10 min after the administration of the test drug solution, then every 5 min till the end of surgery.

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
1.Rescue vasopressor requirement. 2. Magnitude of hemodynamic changes. 3. Incidence of side effects.Timepoint: Every 2min after the SAB till baby extraction and up to 10 min after the administration of the test drug solution, then every 5 min till the end of surgery.
