Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
PRIMARY OUTCOME: 1.Agreement betweenultrasonographically measured skin epidural depth and corrected measured skin epidural depth at which loss of resistance( LOR) is achieved. SECONDARY OUTCOME: 1.The best view amongst longitudinal,paramedian and transverse to visualize the epidural space ultrasonographically. 2.Correlation between weight based formula and ultrasonographically measured skin epidural depth.
