Does ultrasound guidance improve the performance of caudal and epidural blocks in infants and small children compared to conventional techniques?
Does ultrasound guidance improve the performance of caudal and epidural blocks in infants and small children compared to conventional techniques?
Ultrasound guidance is increasingly supported by evidence for improving the performance of neuraxial blocks in infants and children.
No takes yet. Share an insight, caveat, or question.
