About this trial
Given the clinical importance of maternal hypotension, the potential advantages of sequential spinal dosing warrant formal evaluation in a prospective, adequately powered randomized controlled trial. We therefore designed this study to compare the incidence of post-spinal hypotension between the classic single-shot spinal and the sequential fractionated spinal techniques in elective cesarean delivery.
