Handheld Ultrasound-assisted Versus Palpation-guided Labor Combined Spinal-epidural Analgesia: a Randomized Controlled Trial

Seoul National University Hospital·interventional·Posted Feb 18, 2021·Updated Oct 26, 2022

In Brief

A clinical study evaluating handheld ultrasound-assisted technique and conventional palpation-guided technique for Labor Analgesia. Completed, enrolled 84 participants across 1 site.

Detailed Summary

Parturients who need combined spinal-epidural analgesia for labour analgesia are randomly assigned to two groups. For the handheld ultrasound-assisted technique group, ultrasound with 3D navigation function is used to determine the needle insertion point and the insertion angle. For the conventional palpation-guided technique group, the interspinous space is detected by palpation. Procedure time, the number of needle passes, the number of needle insertion attempts, success rate, and complications are compared.
