Protocol summary

Study aim
Overall Objective: To determine the effect of intravenous midazolam on maternal hemodynamic status and neonatal Apgar score in cesarean section under spinal anesthesia
Design
A controlled, parallel-group, single-blind, randomized, phase 2-3 clinical trial on 108 patients.
Settings and conduct
After obtaining the approval of the ethics committee, all patients who are candidates for cesarean surgery with spinal anesthesia in Bahlul Gonabadi Hospital will be selected based on the entry criteria. Patients do not know what intervention is being done on them and in which group they are. One group will be injected with midazolam 10 minutes before the start of spinal anesthesia, and the control group will receive conventional treatment. The hemodynamic status of patients in two groups will be monitored during the operation and will be recorded every 5 minutes. After the birth of the baby, Apgar 1 and 5 minutes of the baby will be examined and recorded. The method of performing spinal anesthesia will be the same for all research units. Serum therapy will be the same in all patients.
Participants/Inclusion and exclusion criteria
Entry conditions: pregnant patient candidate for caesarean section with spinal anesthesia, mother's consent, anesthesia class 1 and 2, body mass index less than 35, age range 18 to 45 years, absence of fetal distress. Conditions of non-entry: unfavorable condition of the fetus during pregnancy (fetal distress), severe systemic disease, high blood pressure during pregnancy, emergency caesarean section, presence of any abnormality in the fetus.
Intervention groups
Intervention group: Midazolam will be injected 10 minutes before the start of spinal anesthesia. Control group: will receive the usual treatment, which means they will receive midazolam after the baby is born.
Main outcome variables
Hemodynamic factors; Neonatal Apgar

Randomization (investigator's opinion)
Randomized
Randomization description
Random allocation using permutation blocks. In this way, in the permutation block method of four, the letter A will represent the intervention group and the letter B will represent the control group. There are six possible states in blocks of four ABBA, AABB, BAAB, BBAA, ABAB, BABA, one number will be assigned to each block and each time one number will be selected by lottery and the patients will enter the study in order.
Blinding (investigator's opinion)
Single blinded
Blinding description
Considering that this research compares the results of midazolam injection to the mother before and after the baby is born, a consent form explaining the possible positive and negative effects of midazolam will be given to the patient. However, the patient is not told which of the intervention groups (midazolam injection before the start of the spinal cord) and control (midazolam injection after the baby is discharged) will be placed, and in this sense the patient will be kept blind.

Intervention groups

1

Description
Intervention group: The intervention group will be intravenously injected with midazolam at a bolus dose of 0.02 miligram per kilogram 10 minutes before the start of spinal anesthesia (that is, at the start of fluid therapy).
