Primary Endpoint
To compare the impact of optimization of pre operative fasting duration for liquids/clear fluids by introduction of educational pamphlets and checklists on perioperative haemodynamics and maternal satisfaction score using LIKERT scale in parturients undergoing elective LSCS.

Study Overview

Brief Summary

Fasting duration before the surgery is a very debatable topic in India as many surgeons, nursing staff and patients follow blanket fasting orders which contradicts the ASA and ISA fasting guidelines and which leads to perioperative harm to the patients in many ways, such as intra operative hemodynamic changes, changes in the rbs values, decreased overall satisfaction score of the patients, dehydration. hence through this study we want to educate everyone including the patients regarding proper and correct guidelines and plan to work on their compliance or non compliance.
