结局指标
主要结局
Mean Score of Anxiety Before Epidural Placement
时间窗: Immediately prior to procedure
3 different measures of anxiety prior to the procedure based on the State Trait Anxiety Inventory: 1) Numeric Rating Scale from 0-10 with 0 representing no anxiety and 10 representing worst anxiety possible. 2) Asking patient response to the question "Are you calm" with options scaling from "very much, moderately, somewhat, or not at all". 3) Asking the patient to answer the question "are you relaxed?" with options scaling from "very much, moderately, somewhat, or not at all." "Very much" will be treated as a positive finding and "moderately, somewhat, or not at all" as negative. The short form of the State Trait Anxiety Inventory with these three measures has been shown to be a reliable measure of anxiety. A fourth measure used will be a Visual Analog Scale from 0-100 of overall anxiety with 0 representing no anxiety and 100 representing the worst anxiety possible.
Mean Score of Anxiety After Epidural Placement
时间窗: Immediately after procedure
As soon as the epidural has been placed and appropriate documentation for the procedure is completed, both groups will take the same surveys again.
