Objectives

Narrative objectives1

Epidural anesthesia is the golden standard for postoperative analgesia and is a common technique used in many surgical procedures. However, epidural anesthesia is a difficult procedure, with difficulty or failure to insert an epidural catheter occurring in about 7% of cases and as high as 26% of anesthesia residents. Causes include obesity and spinal canal stenosis. In addition, difficulty in inserting an epidural catheter can cause patient distress over time. Currently, epidural anesthesia is performed blindly, relying on the senses and rules of thumb. In recent years, with the development of mixed reality (MR) technology, technologies to visualize the invisible are being used in various fields. Mixed Reality (MR) technology has been utilized in various fields to visualize what cannot be seen. We hypothesized that MR projection of the spine on the patient's back during epidural anesthesia would facilitate smooth epidural anesthesia. In a previous study, it was shown that MR imaging of the spine enabled the placement of an epidural needle in the appropriate position to epidural anesthesia using a practice phantom model kit. In this study, we will evaluate whether MR improves the accuracy of epidural anesthesia in a real-world clinical setting by comparing a standard technique (blind) epidural anesthesia group with a group in which epidural anesthesia is performed after imaging the spine using MR technology. If the accuracy of epidural anesthesia is improved by MR imaging, it will be possible to avoid difficulties in epidural catheter insertion, thereby contributing to medical treatment by reducing patient suffering and anesthesia induction time.

Type of intervention

Maneuver

Interventions/Control_1

The spine is projected on the back of the scheduled surgical patient with MR until just before the epidural anesthesia to construct an image. The procedure itself is performed without MR, and epidural anesthesia is administered as usual.

Interventions/Control_2

Perform epidural anesthesia as usual.
