No results posted yet for this study

Summary

The purpose of this study is to investigate whether the dural sac volume as determined by a geometrical calculation following multilevel measurements of its transverse area and length by ultrasound imaging, correlates with the intrathecal spread of a single dose of hyperbaric bupivacaine in a non-obstetrical population.

Conditions

  • Spinal Anesthesia

Interventions
