Accuracy of Manual Palpation vs Ultrasound for Spinal Anesthesia

Status Completed

Clinical Trial Summary

Although the current standard for lumbar puncture and spinal anesthesia is the use of manual palpation of surface landmarks to identify the correct interspace, performance of the procedure at too high of a level may increase the incidence of adverse effects. The current study will evaluate the efficacy of ultrasound in identifying the correct intervertebral space for lumbar puncture thereby improving the safety of the procedure.
