ClinConnect Summary
This clinical trial is studying the relationship between a substance called asprosin, found in the blood, and pain management after a Cesarean section (C-section). Researchers want to see if higher levels of asprosin before surgery are linked to increased pain during labor and more use of pain relief medications after the C-section. They believe that understanding this connection could help improve pain management for mothers undergoing this common procedure.
To be eligible for this study, participants must be pregnant women who are scheduled for an elective C-section and want to use spinal anesthesia, which is a type of pain relief during surgery. Women under 18 or those with certain health conditions—like diabetes, obesity, or serious pregnancy complications—cannot participate. If you join the study, you'll help researchers learn more about how asprosin levels affect pain, which could lead to better care for future patients.
