Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

Cerebrospinal fluid volume is an important factor that influences peak block height and regression of sensory and motor blockade. The aim of this study is to evaluate the effect of dural sac dimension on the spread of spinal anesthesia in elderly patient using ultrasound.
