Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
Prediction of post spinal hypotension on the basis of independent factors including symphysiofundal height, vertebral column length and abdominal girth in Elective LSCS 2. Correlation between SFH, VCL and AG with change in haemodynamic parameters (BP,PR). Timepoint: 90 mins

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
1.To estimate the percentage of cases where mean arterial blood pressure decreases by more than or equal to 20% of the baseline value. 2. To calculate the average dose of vasopressor needed to maintain blood pressure in case of hypotension. 3. To determine the average level of maximum sensory block achieved. 4. To determine the correlation between symphysiofundal height, abdominal girth, vertebral column length, height, weight and BMI with the maximum level of sensory block achieved after spinal anaesthesia. 5. Side effects-nausea, vomiting, shivering if any to be noted. Timepoint: 120 mins post operatively
