Testing the Accuro 3S device for spinal or epidural placement
Part of Brain & nervous system clinical trials.
This study tests a new device (Accuro 3S) that helps doctors place spinal or epidural anesthesia more accurately. It is for adults having surgery or labor who need this type of anesthesia. If you qualify, you may help doctors see if the device works well and safely.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
