Multiple passes and attempts while administering spinal anesthesia are associated with a greater incidence of post dural-puncture headache, paraesthesia and spinal hematoma. The investigators hypothesised that the routine use of pre-procedural ultrasound-guided paramedian spinals reduces the number of passes required to achieve enter the subarachnoid space when compared to the conventional landmark-guided midline approach.
