Official title
Determining the Accuracy of Thoracic Epidural Continuous Catheter Insertion With Confirmatory Fluoroscopic Imaging
Brief summary
Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.
In patients scheduled for thoracic surgery or upper abdominal surgery, investigators will determine the accuracy of the epidural catheter placement by using fluoroscopic imaging. Previous studies have drawn contradictory conclusions based the potential flaw assumption of 100% success rate for correct epidural catheter placement in the thoracic region.
