NCT ID NCT07395622
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study looks at whether a special syringe called EpiFaith® helps anesthesia residents learn how to place labor epidurals more quickly. 34 residents with little experience will each perform 20 epidural placements using either the standard syringe or the EpiFaith® syringe. Researchers will track how often they are successful and if the new syringe leads to fewer complications.
