Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The aim of this study was to compare the successful spinal puncture among patients with pendant position in comparison with those who used traditional sitting position for caesarean section.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

Approval from Ethical Committee of Faculty of Medicine University of Indonesia was acquired prior conducting the study. Subjects were given informed consent before enrolling the study. Subjects were divided into Group A for traditional sitting position (n=154) and Group B for pendant position (n=154). The outcome parameters recorded were the number of attempt for the successful spinal puncture, the number of spinal needle-bone contact and the duration to perform spinal puncture. Data were analyzed by using Statistical Package for Social Scientist (SPSS) version 21.0. Numerical data was served in median with minimal and maximal value. Numerical data was analyzed by using Mann-Whitney test. Categorical data was served by using relative risk (RR) with 95% confidence interval (95% CI) and was analyzed by using Chi-Square test.

Study Groups

Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.

Traditional sitting position

Patient is positioned with her knees flexed 90o, both feet hanging of the bed and propped up by a chair, both arms hugging a pillow, adducted pelvic, maximum pelvic flexion were done to create maximal sagittal lumbal flexion before spinal anesthesia begun.

Group Type ACTIVE_COMPARATOR

Traditional sitting position

Intervention Type PROCEDURE

Subjects were set on traditional sitting position before spinal anesthesia begun.

Pendant position

Patients sit with both their underarms propped up on a metal prop, thus both arms hanging from the prop before spinal anesthesia begun.

Group Type EXPERIMENTAL

Pendant position

Intervention Type PROCEDURE

Subjects were set on pendant position before spinal anesthesia begun.
