Primary Outcome  
Outcome  TimePoints 
1. To measure the changes in hemodynamic parameters [systolic blood pressure, diastolic blood pressure(mmHg), mean arterial pressure(mmHg), heart rate(beats/min)] after subarachnoid block in parturients with gestational diabetes versus healthy parturients.
2. Use of baseline heart rate variability parameters (LF, HF, LF/HF) to predict these changes between the two groups.
 
1) Heart rate variability parameters of frequency domain (LF, HF, LF/HF) at baseline (24 hours prior to the procedure)
2) Hemodynamic parameters (Systolic blood pressure, Diastolic blood pressure, mean arterial pressure, heart rate) at baseline, at 5 minutes after subarachnoid block, every 10 minutes for first 30 minutes, at ever 30 minutes,at 2hours, 6 hours and 12 hours
 
 
Secondary Outcome  
Outcome  TimePoints 
1)To compare the use of intravenous fluid(ml) and vasopressors(mg) after subarachnoid block in both groups.
2) To compare side effects like postoperative nausea vomiting in both groups using severity scale 
1) Use of IV fluids crystalloid (ringer lactate, normal saline in millilitres) in first 30mins, till end of surgery and up to 12 hours
Use of vasopressors for first 30 mins, till end of surgery and up to 12 hours.
2) Nausea and vomiting up to 12 hours.

Brief Summary   Regional anaesthesia primarily subarachnoid block is the preferred method of anaesthesia for elective caesarean section as it encompasses less risk to mother and fetus as compared to general anaesthesia. Hypotension after spinal anaesthesia is the most common side effect due to sympatholysis. Subarachnoid block causes sympatholysis which leads to vasodilatation. This in turn leads to maternal hypotension, decrease in uterine blood flow and fetal circulation, thus leading to fetal hypoxia, bradycardia and acidosis.  
Systemic hemodynamic regulation is maintained by the autonomic nervous system and the sympathetic activity is known to be increased during pregnancy. Sympatholysis therefore leads to higher degree of peripheral vasodilatation and a predominant parasympathetic activity consequently reducing the venous return and cardiac preload, resulting in bradycardia, nausea, and vomiting. Studies have shown that heart rate variability parameters can predict hypotension of subarachnoid block in parturients.
Heart rate variability is standard variation in time sequence (R-R intervals). The time domain analysis reports activity of circulatory system. The frequency domain analysis reflects the sympathovagal balance of autonomic nervous system.The frequency domain measures have spectral components. Very low frequency (0.0033-0.04Hz), low frequency(0.04-0.15Hz) and high frequency (0.15-0.4Hz), very low frequency components is less defined, low frequency reflects a combination of sympathetic, parasympathetic and autonomic nervous system outflow variations, high frequency reflects vagal mediation of cardiac activity.  Low frequency /high frequency ratio is used as an index for assessing sympathovagal balance.  
Heart rate variability exists among women with gestational diabetes. Gestational diabetes is defined as any degree of glucose intolerance with an onset, or first recognition during pregnancyInadequate evidence exists on the use of preoperative heart rate variability parameters to compare hemodynamic changes after subarachnoid block in parturients with gestational diabetes mellitus versus healthy parturients, so we designed this prospective observational study .
