Detaljeret beskrivelse
This quasi-experimental prospective clinical trial was designed to compare the conventional sitting position and the Imran Technique during spinal anesthesia and lumbar puncture procedures. Adult participants aged 18 to 65 years who required spinal anesthesia for surgical procedures or diagnostic lumbar puncture were enrolled and allocated into two groups.
Participants in the control group underwent the procedure using the conventional sitting position, while participants in the intervention group underwent the procedure using the Imran Technique. The primary outcome measure was first-attempt procedural success. Secondary outcome measures included total procedural time, positioning-to-needle insertion time, number of needle attempts, needle redirections, intervertebral space changes, overall procedural success, need for operator assistance, patient comfort, ability to maintain position, operator strain, accessibility of the intervertebral space, and procedure-related complications.
The study was conducted at the Intensive Care Unit of the Department of Anaesthesiology, POF Hospital, Wah Cantt, Pakistan, following Institutional Review Board approval and written informed consent procedures.
