Table tilt may change how anesthesia works
NCT ID NCT07400185
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study looks at whether changing the position of the operating table affects how well spinal anesthesia works. Researchers will measure blood flow in the skin (called perfusion index) in 150 adults having leg surgery. The goal is to see if table position can improve anesthesia results.
