First seen Apr 25, 2026 · Last updated May 24, 2026 · Updated 3 times
Summary
This study tested whether using ultrasound to find the right spot for spinal anesthesia works better than the usual method of feeling for landmarks in obese women having C-sections. 100 obese pregnant women were randomly assigned to either ultrasound guidance or the standard landmark method. The main goal was to see which group had a higher success rate on the first try, aiming to reduce discomfort and complications.
