Abstract
Because US imaging is successfully used for peripheral nerve blocks, central venous catheter placement, and other procedures, it is reasonable to suppose that it may be a solution to improve neuraxial anesthesia in challenging populations. Naturally, the next step is education and exposure for anesthesia providers to make ultrasound-assisted neuraxial anesthesia (USANA) available for the improvement of practice.
