Could a quick scan end failed epidurals for moms in labor?

NCT ID NCT05897814

Summary

This study tested if two special ultrasound methods (M-mode and color Doppler) could accurately confirm the correct placement of an epidural catheter in women during labor. The goal was to see if this imaging could help reduce the high rate of epidural failures, which leave mothers without adequate pain relief. Researchers enrolled 100 women in labor to evaluate how well the ultrasound techniques worked and how long they took.
