Lumbar puncture is performed to evaluate for multiple neurologic conditions, including meningitis and subarachnoid hemorrhage. However, success rates with the landmark-based technique are limited. Ultrasound is most commonly used for pre-marking without dynamic guidance, which presents several limitations, including absence of real-time guidance and lack of reliability if any patient movement occurs after skin marking. We describe a novel, ultrasound-guided paramedian approach which was successfully performed in the Emergency Department setting for lumbar puncture. Physicians should consider this technique as an alternate model using real-time guidance to reduce needle passes in those with difficult anatomy.
