Study Summary
The aim of this study is to address the problem of epidural failure. The investigators theorize epidural failure can be due to inappropriate catheter movement and this may be related to the length of which the epidural catheter is inserted. The investigators will use electrical stimulation to determine if the catheter moved in the sacral direction with insertion.
Primary Outcome
Electrical stimulation will be performed at incremental points during catheter pull back with documentation of where stimulation was seen.
