Summary

This study aimed to evaluate the use of ultrasound in obstetric anesthesia, specifically for measuring epidural and intrathecal distances in pregnant women undergoing cesarean section. The relationship between skin-subdural distance (Ultrasound depth) and needle depth was assessed, and the accuracy of ultrasound in determining needle entry site, needle distance, trial attempts, and block success was examined. Additionally, complications such as paresthesia, lower back pain, and postoperative headache were queried and recorded.
