Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frameDescription
The Effect of Different Types of Spinal Needles Used by First-year Anesthesia Residents on Procedural Success and Click Sensation: A Prospective, Observational StudySpinal anesthesia procedure timeClicking feeling: Considering that the click feeling due to dural puncture is taken, in which attempt (1, 2, and ≥3) the needle's guide was removed and the cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) arrival occurred Procedural success: Time until CSF is seen (\<1.9sec, ≥2sec)

Secondary

MeasureTime frameDescription
