About

The study aimed to compare successful spinal needle placement between crossed leg sitting position and traditional sitting position in patients underwent urology surgery.

Full description

Approval from Ethical Committee of Faculty of Medicine Universitas Indonesia was acquired prior conducting the study. Subjects were given informed consent before enrolling the study. Subjects were randomly divided into CLSP Group for crossed leg sitting position (n=105) and TSP Group for traditional sitting position (n=106). Non-invasive blood pressure (NIBP) monitor, eletrocardiography (ECG), oxygen nasal cannula and pulse-oxymetry was set on the subjects in the operation room. Baseline information was recorded. Spinal anesthesia was done by anesthesiology registrars that have done 50 spinal anesthesia procedures and have been explained about the protocol of spinal anesthesia injection in this study (to avoid bias). Outcome measures were the number of successful spinal needle placement in the first attempt, the difficulty level of landmark palpation for injection, and the number of needle-bone contact. Data was analyzed by SPSS (Statistical Package for Social Scientist) using Chi-Square test, Fisher Exact test, and Kolmogorov-Smirnov test. Significance value used was 5% with 80% power.

  • Subjects who have been explained about the study, have agreed to enroll and have signed the informed consent form

Exclusion criteria

  • uncooperative subjects
  • subjects with relative and absolute contraindications to spinal anesthesia (coagulation disorders, thrombocytopenia, increases intracranial pressure, severe hypovolemia, severe heart valve disorders, local infection at the injection site, allergy toward local anesthetic agents, significant anatomical disorder of the spine, wound/scar on the lumbal area)

211 participants in 2 patient groups

CLSP Group
Experimental group
Description:
Those with cross leg sitting position: patients sit with both their knees flexed medially, hip flexed, resulting in pelvic leaning posteriorly and reducing lumbal lordosis.
Treatment:
Procedure: Cross leg sitting position
TSP Group
Active Comparator group
Description:
Those with traditional sitting position: patient is positioned with her knees flexed 90o, both feet hanging of the bed and propped up by a chair, both arms hugging a pillow, adducted pelvic, maximum pelvic flexion were done to create maximal sagittal lumbal flexion.
Treatment:
Procedure: Traditional sitting position
