Study Summary
The aim of this study is to assess whether transesophageal echocardiography (TEE) can be used to successfully guide an epidural catheter to a targeted thoracic level in pediatric patients. The catheter will be placed in the epidural space under real-time TEE imaging and assistance by a trained TEE operator (this could include an anesthesiologist or cardiologist).
Primary Outcome
The success rate achieved using TEE guidance to thread an epidural catheter to within one targeted thoracic spinal level. Post-operative radiograph will be used to confirm catheter position.
