CRAP my resident just has a wet tap on a B/L knee during a CSE placement (L3-4). Been doing this for 6 years now and it is my first!
I took over and did a CSE a a level lower (4-5)
My colleagues are telling me not to use the catheter for post pain relief for the risk of high spinal occurring. Some of the senior partners feel it is ok to use the catheter.
does any one have any input for me?
I want to be safe as possible so if the risk of high spinal is there I would prefer not to do it
Thanks for your insight and experience
