Overview
Brief Summary
This was a single-blind, randomized controlled trial. Seventy-six patients who underwent spinal anesthesia for surgery were randomized into the Shotblocker group or Control group. Before the insertion of a 25-gauge spinal needle, Shotblocker was applied just before the spinal needle insertion in the Shotblocker group. 10-cm visual analog scale to evaluate the pain intensity of spinal needle insertion and a five-point scale for patient satisfaction were compared between the two groups.

Outcomes
Primary Outcomes
Assessment of pain during spinal needle insertion with 10 cm VAS (Visual Analog Scale)
Time Frame: 2 minutes
Assessment of pain during spinal needle insertion will be marked on 10 cm VAS scale 0-10 ( 0:no pain 10:Worst possible pain ) by the patient and will be measured
Secondary Outcomes
- Five point scale for anesthesists satisfaction(1 minutes)
- Five point scale for patient satisfaction(1 minutes)
