Interventional multispectral photoacoustic imaging of the epidural space [PDF]
Injections of anaesthetics into the epidural space are widely performed to relieve pain. Here, for the first time, we investigated the use of photoacoustic imaging to identify the epidural space using an interventional multispectral photoacoustic (IMPA ...

Radiological analysis of the position of epidural catheters in the thoracic epidural space [PDF]
Thoracic epidural catheterization is used widely for anesthesia and postoperative pain control in thoracic and abdominal surgery. Generally, an epidural catheter is inserted only 4–5 cm into the epidural space, as excessive catheter insertion causes complications like vascular injury and paresthesias [1].

Portable optical epidural needle-a CMOS-based system solution and its circuit design. [PDF]
Epidural anesthesia is a common anesthesia method yet up to 10% of procedures fail to provide adequate analgesia. This is usually due to misinterpreting the tactile information derived from the advancing needle through the complex tissue planes ...

Localization of epidural space: A review of available technologies.
Although epidural analgesia is widely used for pain relief, it is associated with a significant failure rate. Loss of resistance technique, tactile feedback from the needle, and surface landmarks are traditionally used to guide the epidural needle tip ...

Difficult Removal of an Epidural Catheter in the Anterior Epidural Space
When administering postoperative acute pain services, particularly regarding patient- controlled epidural analgesia, difficulties may occasionally be encountered during removal of the epidural catheter. In this report, we present an instance of difficult removal of epidural catheter in a female patient undergoing open reduction and internal fixation of
