Comparison of Thoracic Epidural Pressure in the Prone and Lateral Decubitus Position

Summary

It is reported that the distribution of contrast medium had an obvious correlation with the extent of sensory analgesia after injection of LA. Our previous study showed that different posture (prone vs. lateral decubitus) resulted in different degree of contrast medium spread. We supposed that differences of epidural pressure between diverse postures might be one factor contributing those differences of epidurography.

This study was designed to compare the epidural pressure and extent of spread of epidurography between prone and lateral decubitus position
