This prospective, single-center observational study aims to evaluate the predictive value of the internal jugular vein collapsibility index (IJVCI) for spinal anesthesia-associated hypotension in preeclamptic parturients (gestational age ≥28 weeks) undergoing cesarean delivery classified as Lucas category 3-4. Preoperative IJVCI will be measured using ultrasonography before spinal anesthesia during spontaneous and deep respiration. The incidence of hypotension within the first 20 minutes after spinal anesthesia will be recorded. The diagnostic performance of IJVCI in predicting hypotension will be analyzed.
