ClinConnect Summary

This clinical trial is looking at how the body's natural internal clock, known as the circadian rhythm, affects pain after a cesarean section (C-section). Researchers will use a Huawei wristwatch to track the rhythm of mothers who are undergoing elective C-sections using a specific type of anesthesia. They want to see if there's a link between the timing of a mother's internal clock and her levels of pain after the surgery, which will be measured using a simple pain scale.

To participate in this study, women aged between 20 and 45 who are within 37-42 weeks of pregnancy and are scheduled for an elective C-section may be eligible. Participants will need to agree to join the study and provide informed consent. It's important to note that certain health conditions or medications may prevent some individuals from participating. Those who take part will help researchers understand more about how our body clocks can influence recovery after surgery, which could lead to better pain management in the future.
