Summary
This study looks at whether a special syringe called EpiFaith® helps anesthesia residents learn to place labor epidurals more quickly. Thirty-four residents with little experience will each perform 20 epidural placements using either the standard syringe or the EpiFaith® syringe. Researchers will track how often each attempt is successful, aiming to see if the new tool shortens the learning curve.
