Brief Summary

Epidural anesthesia/analgesia can be performed under various positions. In this study, the investigators aimed to compare the intervertebral and skin-epidural distances in "the sitting" and "rider" positions with the help of ultrasonography

Conditions

Anesthesia, Epidural; Analgesia, Epidural; Ultrasound Imaging

Keywords

Epidural anesthesia; Rider position; İntervertebral distance; Skin-epidural distance

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (2)

• Intervertebral distance

  Comparison of intervertebral distance measurements with the help of ultrasonography in the thoracic and lumbar regions in sitting and rider positions.

  5 minutes

• Skin - epidural distance

  Comparison of skin - epidural distance measurements with the help of ultrasonography in the thoracic and lumbar regions in sitting and rider positions.

  5 minutes

Interventions

Epidural Ultrasonography PROCEDURE

In this study, we measured the intervertebral distance and skin-epidural distance with the help of ultrasonography in the thoracic and lumbar regions in sitting and rider positions.
