Clinical Trial Summary

Our aim is to investigate whether a novel landmark, the groove between the buttocks or the intergluteal cleft, can facilitate the identification of the neuraxial midline in obstetric patients when compared to ultrasound as the reference standard for the determination of this midline


Description:

Determine if the intergluteal cleft, when compared to ultrasound as the reference standard, can be used to identify the neuraxial midline in obstetric patients Difference in horizontal distance between the vertical lines of the intergluteal cleft and the neuraxial midline, the latter measured with ultrasound

Diagnostic Test:
Intergluteal Cleft
Marking of intersection between inferior aspect of the intergluteal cleft and the horizontal intercristal line

Horizontal Distance between Vertical Markings
The horizontal distance between these two vertical marks will be measured at the level of the intercristal line
