Comparative Study
Use of colour Doppler and M-mode ultrasonography to confirm the location of an epidural catheter - a retrospective case series.
Epidural anesthesia and analgesia has a reported failure rate ranging from 13% to 32%. We describe a technique using colour Doppler and M-mode ultrasonography to determine the position of the epidural catheter after placement in adults. ⋯ Our preliminary data suggest the feasibility of using colour Doppler and M-mode ultrasonography to confirm proper epidural catheter placement.
