Question of the Month – September 2017

Welcome to your Question of the Month - September 2017

Spinal anesthesia in infants is a viable anesthesia technique for surgeries such as inguinal hernia. A 2 month-old former 30 week gestation female is scheduled for a unilateral inguinal hernia repair. The resident on the case has a strong desire to perform the spinal. How does practitioner level (Attending/CRNA/Resident) matter in terms of success/failure of placement of an infant spinal?
