Summary

The lumbar puncture (LP) technique is a widely utilized method for diagnosis and treatment purposes. Recently, the paramedian approach technique (PAT) has garnered increasing interest due to its advantages over the midline approach technique (MAT), which has traditionally been used for LP in clinical practice . Utilizing digital virtual human and computer simulation techniques, a new path has been proposed for the computerized modified paramedian approach technique (CMPAT). As such, the objective of the present study is to present a randomized controlled trial (RCT) protocol to investigate and compare the effects of CMPAT versus MAT in patients requiring LP.
