Study Details

Study Description

Brief Summary

The aim of this study is to evaluate the effectiveness of intramuscular (IM) 0.5 mg neostigmine for accelerating bladder emptying and preventing postoperative urine retention (POUR) after cesarean section (CS) performed under spinal anesthesia.

Condition or Disease Intervention/Treatment Phase
Phase 4

Detailed Description

Women will be allowed to drink clear fluid up to 200 ml until 2 hours before induction of anesthesia. All women will be asked to urinate before transfer to the operating theatre. On arrival of the patient to operative theatre, intravenous (IV) cannula will be inserted and IV infusion of Ringer's acetate (20 ml/kg) will be given as a fluid preload. All participants will receive the standard intraoperative care and monitoring. After surgery, in the postoperative care unit, participants will receive either 0.5 mg IM neostigmine (study group) or IM NaCl 0.9% (control group).

Urinary bladder ultrasound will be performed hourly until spontaneous micturition occurs. If POUR occurred (inability to void with at a bladder volume > 600 ml detected by ultrasound), then they will be catheterized by closed envelope technique. The prolate ellipsoid method was used to measure urinary bladder volume based on the formula volume = length × width × height × 0.52 on a two-dimensional image. The duration of surgery, the amount of administered intraoperative fluid, and the urinary bladder volume before IM injection will be recorded.
