Your muscle mass may determine how long numbing lasts
NCT ID NCT07638280
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study looks at how things like age, sex, body mass, and back muscle size affect how long spinal anesthesia numbs you during surgery. Researchers will measure back muscles with ultrasound and track how fast numbness spreads. The goal is to understand these factors better, not to test a new drug.
