CompuFlo® CathCheck™ for Lumbar Epidural Anesthesia
What You Need to Know Before You Apply
What is the purpose of this trial?
This pilot study evaluates the use of the CompuFlo® CathCheck™ System to assess labor epidural catheter function before reactivation for postpartum tubal ligation. The study aims to determine whether this technology can accurately identify functional versus dysfunctional epidural catheters compared with standard clinical assessment methods. Improving catheter assessment may reduce failed epidural reactivation, the need for additional anesthesia techniques, and improve patient safety.

Experimental Treatment
Postpartum women undergoing elective tubal ligation after vaginal delivery with an indwelling labor epidural catheter. Participants will undergo standard epidural catheter assessment and reactivation, including evaluation with the CompuFlo® CathCheck™ System to determine catheter functionality and predict successful epidural anesthesia for the tubal ligation procedure.
