Different Preloads for Prevention of Hypotension in Patients Undergoing Elective CS Under Intrathecal Anesthesia

Summary

The aim of this study was to compare between crystalloid versus crystalloid and colloid combination preloads for prevention of hypotension following intrathecal anaesthesia in patients undergoing elective Caesarean section. To examine weather baseline perfusion index could predict the incidence of intrathecal-induced hypotension during Caesarean section.
