Response - NO
Brief Summary  

      Patients will be hospitalized the day before surgery and instructed to fast from midnight.

      Anesthesia examination will be conducted the night before surgery.

      Regular hemodynamic monitoring will be done to know the baseline values,

                    -Three-lead electrocardiography

                    -Pulse oximetry

                    -Non-invasive blood pressure measurement

      On the day of surgery , patient will be received in premedication room.

      IJV ,SCV and IVC measurements will be taken using a Sonosite M-turbo ultrasound machine.

      IJV measurements will be taken using a linear vascular transducer (7-13 MHz, 38 mm).

      SCV measurements will be taken using a linear vascular transducer (7-13 MHz, 38 mm).

      IVC measurements will be taken using a curvilinear USG probe (1-5 MHz, 21 mm).

      All the Measurements will be recorded for three respiratory cycles.

      IJVCI, SCVCI and IVCCI will be calculated using the same equation: (Maximum diameter - Minimum diameter) / Maximum diameter) x 100%.

      After which patient will be shifted inside the OT and the monitors will be attached.

      Spinal anesthesia will be administered with 0.5% hyperbaric bupivacaine at a fixed dose of 15mg.

      Patients will receive a co-load of Ringer lactate solution.

      Sensory block was monitored, and surgery was initiated when the block reached the T6 level.

      Heart rate and mean arterial pressure (MAP) will be recorded every 3 minutes for the first 20 minutes.

      Ephedrine will be used to treat hypotension, and atropine will be used to treat bradycardia.
