Will Episure AutoDetect prevent me from getting an accidental dural puncture?
Indigo Orb believes that using Episure AutoDetect enhances the anesthesia provider’s ability to identify the epidural space. However, just as with traditional LOR syringes, the anesthesia provider must stop advancing the needle once the epidural space has been identified. Currently, there is no mechanism which prevents someone from continuing to advance the epidural needle beyond this point, but Indigo Orb is researching this area.
