NCT ID NCT06319989
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study tested whether using a biplane ultrasound (showing two views at once) helps doctors perform caudal epidural anesthesia more effectively in children compared to standard single-plane ultrasound. The trial involved 46 boys aged 4 months to 10 years undergoing circumcision. Researchers measured first-puncture success, procedure time, and pain relief duration to see if the biplane method offers clear advantages.
