Protocol summary

Summary
The aim of this study is comparison of the effects of intrathecal fentanyl, pethidine or placebo added to lidocaine and epinephrine on the duration of postoperative analgesia in spinal anesthesia for elective cesarean delivery. This study will be performed on 195 pregnant women in Rasht Al-Zahra hospital. After signing the informed consent from study participants, the women will be randomly divided into three groups of 65 persons. The first group (Intervention group) will be anesthetized under spinal anesthesia with 25 microgram fentanyl and 75 mg lidocaine and 0.02mg epinephrine and the second group (intervention group) with 25mg pethidine and 75 mg lidocaine and 0.02mg epinephrine and the third group (control group) with 1.5ml normal saline and 75mg lidocaine and 0.02mg epinephrine. Any person who involved for outcome evaluations in this study, have no information about prescribed medications. for having ability to treat the probable complications, the major anesthesiologist will be aware of the kind of drug. Preoperative heart rate, blood pressure, O2 saturation, respiratory rate, level of consciousness, nausea and vomiting will be monitored. After birth of the infant, APGAR score will be measured. After ending the operation, every 1hour in the first 6hours and then every 2hours for the next 18hours about the analgesia according to VAS score (0 to 10) will be asked from mother and if pain or the other probable complications present, treating will be started.
