Table position and spinal anesthesia study
Part of Pain clinical trials.
This trial looks at how changing the operating table's position affects blood flow and spinal anesthesia during lower leg surgery. It may help you if you are having surgery on your leg or foot and are healthy enough for spinal anesthesia.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are between 18 and 65 years old
- You are having surgery on your leg or foot (lower extremity)
- You are healthy or have mild health conditions (ASA 1-3)
- You will receive spinal anesthesia (numbing medicine in your back)
- You do not have peripheral artery disease
- You do not have nail polish or fake nails on your toenails or fingernails

This study tests a new way to give anesthesia during leg surgery to improve blood flow. It aims to see if spinal anesthesia works better than general anesthesia for recovery and comfort.
This study tests whether lying on your side during spinal anesthesia for leg bone surgery helps keep your heart rate and blood pressure more stable. Researchers want to see if this positioning helps older adults with health conditions recover better.
This study looks at how blood flow in your fingers relates to low blood pressure during knee surgery. It may help doctors better manage anesthesia for future patients.
This study measures how the main leg vein changes size with body position in pregnant women getting spinal anesthesia. The goal is to see if this predicts drops in blood pressure, helping doctors plan safer anesthesia.
This study compares two ways of giving spinal anesthesia (midline vs. paramedian) using ultrasound guidance in adults having orthopedic surgery. The goal is to see which approach is safer and more effective.
This study compares general anesthesia (being completely asleep) versus regional/spinal anesthesia (numbing only from the waist down) during leg artery surgery. It aims to find which method is safer and works better for people with severe blockages.
