Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
Assessment of sensory and motor block characteristics following spinal anesthesia, including onset time, highest sensory block level, duration of sensory block regression to S2 dermatome, onset of motor block, and duration of motor block, recovery to Modified Bromage Scale Grade 0.Timepoint: Assessed from intrathecal injection until complete recovery of sensory block regression to S2 dermatome and motor block, Modified Bromage Scale Grade 0, with assessments at 3, 5, 10, 15, 30, 45, 60, 75, 90, and 105 minutes after spinal anesthesia, and continued postoperatively until complete block regression.

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
Perioperative hemodynamic stability heart rate, systolic blood pressure, diastolic blood pressure, mean arterial pressure, and Saturation, time to first postoperative analgesic requirement, and their association with block characteristics and clinical variables like BMI, glycemic control modality, and duration of surgery.Timepoint: Assessed from baseline before spinal anesthesia at 3, 5, 10, 15, 30, 45, 60, 75, 90, and 105 minutes after intrathecal injection, at the end of surgery, and continued postoperatively until the first analgesic requirement and complete sensory and motor block regression.
