Article Synopsis
  • The study aimed to evaluate how dexmedetomidine affects complications from hemabate in women undergoing cesarean sections.
  • A total of 120 pregnant women were divided into three groups: a placebo group, a low-dose group (0.5 μg/kg), and a high-dose group (1 μg/kg) of dexmedetomidine, administered after hemabate injection during surgery.
  • Results showed that both dexmedetomidine doses significantly reduced adverse effects like nausea and increased patient satisfaction, with the high-dose group performing better than the low-dose group.
