Experimental
The LDF neuraxial positioning technique
The SCF neuraxial positioning technique
In the LDF neuraxial positioning technique, fifty participants were planned to lay down the stretcher facing the wall of the sonography room and turned back to the consultant Radiologist. Volunteers jaw touch to chest and legs in abdominal flexion with hands are on the knees. The position is completed with the back curved in the fetal position. Then the USG is performed by the consultant Radiology M.D. in maximum 2 hours time to each participant, and the 7-point NRS evaluation is done by each participant in maximum 30 minutes time until the study ends within 15 weeks.
In the SCF neuraxial positioning technique, the same fifty participants were planned to sit on the same part of the stretcher facing the wall of the sonography room and turned back to the consultant Radiologist with legs crossed, forearms of the participants are on the lap and hands are on the knees, and the position is completed with the back curved in the fetal position.Then the USG is performed by the consultant Radiology M.D. in maximum 2 hours time to each participant, and the 7-point NRS evaluation is done by each participant in maximum 30 minutes time until the study ends within 15 weeks.
