Article Synopsis
- Hypotension is a common issue following subarachnoid anesthesia during cesarean deliveries, and this study aimed to explore if ondansetron, a serotonin blocker, could help prevent it.
- A total of 86 patients were randomly assigned to receive either intravenous ondansetron or a placebo, with their blood pressure and heart rate monitored throughout the procedure.
- The results showed no significant differences in hemodynamic parameters or medication requirements for hypotension between the two groups, indicating that ondansetron does not effectively mitigate the effects of subarachnoid anesthesia in this context.
