Ultrasound-guided versus landmark-guided neuraxial puncture

Yale Anesthesiology

In this episode, Dr. de Carvalho discusses his article, Efficacy and safety of ultrasound-guided versus landmark-guided neuraxial puncture: a systematic review, network meta-analysis and trial sequential analysis of randomized clinical trials. Dr. de Carvalho’s work reiterates that using ultrasound-guided neuraxial anesthesia results in a more efficient neuraxial placement. Ultrasound-guided neuraxial use results in fewer needle attempts and redirections and may improve patient satisfaction. Besides, his works demonstrate that ultrasound benefits both patients with normal and abnormal anatomy.
