Spinal anesthesia for lumbar surgery: ropivacaine clinical trials

Testing the Feasibility of Using Ropivacaine in Spinal Anesthesia for Patients With Lower Back Surgery

This study is testing different types of anaesthesia for back surgery. We want to see if a newer anaesthetic, ropivacaine, works well for spinal anaesthesia during certain lower back operations, and if patients, surgeons, and nurses find it acceptable compared to other options.
