Supraneural transforaminal epidural injection in the treatment of radiculopathy in the lumbar spine – a brief descriptive overview and technique of manipulation

open access: yesВестник анестезиологии и реаниматологии, 2023
Fluoroscopy guided epidural injection is often used to treat radicular pain in the lumbar spine. Risk and effectiveness data vary depending on injection routes and underlying pathology.

Air versus saline in the loss of resistance technique for identification of the epidural space.

open access: yesCochrane Database of Systematic Reviews, 2014
BACKGROUND The success of epidural anaesthesia depends on correct identification of the epidural space. For several decades, the decision of whether to use air or physiological saline during the loss of resistance technique for identification of the ...

Large-Volume Blood Patch to Multiple Sites in the Epidural Space through a Single-Catheter Access Site for Treatment of Spontaneous Intracranial Hypotension

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Neuroradiology, 2014
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: Spontaneous intracranial hypotension can be a therapeutic challenge to the treating physician. In this study, we present our experience with the administration of a large-volume blood patch to multiple sites in the epidural space ...

Acoustic puncture assist device: A novel technique to identify the epidural space

open access: yesSaudi Journal of Anaesthesia, 2016
Background: Acoustic puncture assist device (APAD) is designed to detect aand signal the loss of resistance during the epidural procedure. We aimed to evaluate this device in terms of successful identification of the epidural space and the incidence of ...

Case Report: Pneumocephalus after labor epidural anesthesia [v1; ref status: indexed, http://f1000r.es/3va]

open access: yesF1000Research, 2014
Lumbar epidural anesthesia is commonly used for labor analgesia. The 'loss-of- resistance' to air technique (LORA) is generally employed for recognition of the epidural space. One of the rare complications of this technique is pneumocephalus (PC).

Epidural Analgesia Decreases Narcotic Requirements in Low Level Spina Bifida Patients Undergoing Urologic Laparotomy for Neurogenic Bladder and Bowel [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Purpose Concern of anatomical anomalies and worsening neurologic symptoms has prevented widespread use of epidural catheters in patients with low level spina bifida (LLSB). We hypothesize that thoracic epidural placement in the T9-T10 interspace is safe

The Use of a Dehydrated Amnion/Chorion Membrane Allograft in Patients Who Subsequently Undergo Reexploration after Posterior Lumbar Instrumentation

open access: yesAdvances in Orthopedics, 2015
Background Context. Products that can reduce development of epidural fibrosis may reduce risk for ongoing pain associated with development of scar tissue and make subsequent epidural reexploration easier. Purpose.
