Can ultrasound training help doctors get spinal anesthesia right on the first try?

NCT ID NCT07426679

Summary

This study aims to find out if training anesthesiologists to use ultrasound guidance for spinal anesthesia leads to better results than the traditional 'feel-by-touch' method. Doctors will be trained in one of the two techniques using medical simulators and then perform the procedure on patients having elective lower limb surgery. Researchers will measure if the ultrasound-trained group is more successful on their first attempt and if patients are more satisfied.
