Study Summary
In this double blinded randomized controlled trial, the investigators would like to compare the effects on needle manipulation when relatively inexperienced sonographist (\< 1 year of ultrasound experience) perform ultrasound guided labor epidurals utilizing a traditional handheld ultrasound versus a handheld device that was engineered to provide automated guidance. The primary outcome of this study would be number of needle passes.
Primary Outcome
Number of ventral needle movements without removing needle from skin. A needle pass is defined as any forward advancement or withdraw and forward redirection of the needle without withdraw from the skin.
Interventions
- DEVICE Traditional ultrasound
- DEVICE Automated ultrasound
