Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
Among the two parameters (Symphysiofundal height and abdominal girth), symphysiofundal height will have increased incidence of hypotension in cesarean section under spinal anaesthesia using 0.5% Hyperbaric bupivacaineTimepoint: Systolic and diastolic blood pressure, mean arterial blood pressure and level of sensory blockade will be measured at regular intervals

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
Symphysiofundal height will have increased incidence of hypotension in cesarean section under spinal anaesthesia using 0.5% Hyperbaric bupivacaineTimepoint: Systolic and diastolic blood pressure, mean arterial blood pressure and level of sensory blockade will be measured from beginning of procedure till the end of procedure
