Geneva, April 28 -- International Clinical Trials Registry received information related to the study (TCTR20260416008) titled 'Effect of prophylactic ondansetron on hemodynamic changes in elderly patients following spinal anesthesia: A Randomized Controlled Trial' on April 16.
Study Type: Interventional
Study Design:
Randomized
Primary Sponsor: N/A
