Official title
Randomized Double-blinded Study Designed to Optimize the Dose of Bupivacaine in Combined Spinal Epidurals to Reduce the Incidence of Fetal Bradycardia and Maternal Hypotension
Brief summary
Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.
The purpose of this study is to determine what dose of medication administered through a combined spinal epidural (CSE) provides the optimal pain relief with the minimal amount of side effects. The 3 doses studied here (1.25, 1.66 and 2.5mg) are routinely use on the labor floor (depending on the physician preference) but the idea is to quantify safety, efficacy and side effects for each of these doses.
