This study helps to understand how measurement of the diameter of certain blood vessels in the body can help in predicting a fall in blood pressure that could happen after spinal anesthesia in patients undergoing surgeries under spinal anesthesia

Eligibility

Inclusion criteria

Inclusion criteria: 1.Patients of either gender of the age group eighteen to fifty nine years 2. Consenting to the study 3. Belonging to American Society of Anaesthesiologists physical status one or two 4. Undergoing elective surgery under spinal anaesthesia. 5.

Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
To compare the sensitivity of IVC collapsibility index, IJV collapsibility index and aorta caval index in predicting spinal anaesthesia induced hypotension in adults undergoing surgery in supine positionTimepoint: Baseline vitals are noted along with measurement of IVC, IJV and aorta diameter. NIBP, HR and SpO2 will be recorded every 2 minutes for the first 10 minutes and every 5 minutes until 30 mins after spinal anaesthesia. Outcome would be presence of hypotension post spinal anaesthesia, and that will be measured intraoperatively.

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
To associate other baseline patient specific parameters with spinal anaesthesia induced hypotensionTimepoint: Baseline vitals are noted along with measurement of IVC, IJV & aorta diameter. NIBP, HR & SpO2 will be recorded every 2 minutes for the first 10 minutes & every 5 minutes until 30 mins after spinal anaesthesia. Outcome would be presence of hypotension post spinal anaesthesia, & that will be measured intraoperatively.
