Hypotension in Spinal Anesthesia for Total Knee Joint Arthroplasty: a Comparison of Taylor's Approach With Paramedian Lumbar Approach

University of British Columbia·interventional·Posted Nov 27, 2014·Updated Dec 4, 2015

In Brief

A clinical study evaluating Lumbar paramedian approach at L3-L4 interspace and Taylor's approach (paramedian approach at L5-S1 interspace) for Spinal Anesthesia. Completed, enrolled 30 participants across 1 site.

Detailed Summary

Spinal anesthesia is a common technique for providing anesthesia for knee joint replacement surgery. The investigators wish to demonstrate that using a lower approach to spinal anesthetic (Taylor's approach of L5-S1) causes less low blood pressure while still providing adequate anesthesia for knee joint replacement surgery than a higher approach (L3-L4).
