First seen Feb 27, 2026 · Last updated Apr 30, 2026 · Updated 10 times
Summary
This study tested whether using ultrasound to guide spinal anesthesia works better than the traditional method of feeling for landmarks in very obese women (BMI 50 or higher) having a planned C-section. 60 women took part. The main goal was to see if ultrasound helps the doctor get the needle in the right spot on the first try. Results could make the procedure safer and more comfortable for these patients.
