Epidural training study for new residents
This study looks at how anesthesiology residents learn to place epidurals. It may help understand the best way to teach this skill to doctors who are just starting out.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You must be an anesthesiology resident.
- You must have placed fewer than 5 epidurals before.

This trial tests if simulation-based training helps anesthesia residents learn to place epidural catheters for pain relief. It may be right for you if you are a resident with little experience placing epidurals.
This study tests two different epidural techniques to find the best dose of pain medicine for labor. It aims to improve comfort during childbirth.
This study is testing how well a combination of two medicines (bupivacaine and lidocaine) works for epidural pain relief during early labor. The goal is to find the best dose to help manage labor pain.
This study compares two ways an anesthesia resident places an epidural catheter (a tiny tube that delivers pain relief) during your surgery. They want to see which method is safer and more successful, so you might get better pain control after surgery.
This trial tests a new syringe device that helps doctors locate the epidural space during pain-relief procedures like epidural injections. The goal is to see if the new syringe works as well as the standard one, potentially making the procedure easier and safer.
This trial studies an approach to placing an epidural (pain medicine placed near the spine) during early labor. It aims to improve how safely and accurately epidurals are positioned, which may help with comfort during childbirth.
