Summary
This study compares a new device called CompuFlo CathCheck to the standard X-ray method (epidurogram) for confirming that an epidural catheter is in the right spot. About 50 adults getting epidurals for surgery will participate. The goal is to see if the new device works just as well, which could reduce the need for X-rays.
