| Popis: | Aim: The type and diameter of the needle used in spinal anesthesia (SA) affect the procedure’s success and the sensation of clicking during a dura puncture. This study aimed to compare the effects of Quincke and pencil-point needles of the same thickness, when used by anesthesia residents new to SA application, on procedural success and the number of trials required to perceive click sensation. Methods: This prospective randomized study included 213 adult patients undergoing elective surgery under SA, divided into six groups based on needle type and diameter: Group I: Quincke (Q)-25 Gauge (G), Group II: Q-26G, Group III: Q-27G, Group IV: Pencil-point (P)-25G, Group V: P-26G, and Group VI: P-27G. The number of interventions for SA (1-3), the attempt (1, 2, or ≥3) during which the stylet was removed and cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) flow occurred, considering that the click sensation was felt during the procedure, and the time taken for CSF appearance (0.05). The SA success rate in the first trial (p |
