Anatomical dimensions of the lumbar dural sac predict the sensory block level of continuous epidural analgesia during labor

Abstract Background The anatomical dimensions of the lumbar dural sac determine the sensory block level of spinal anesthesia; however, whether they show the same predictive value during continuous epidural anesthesia (CEA) remains undetermined. We designed the present study to verify the efficacy of...
