Post-dural puncture headache: a prospective study on incidence, risk factors, and clinical characterization of 285 consecutive procedures.
Abstract
Lumbar puncture (LP) is a common and relatively safe neurological procedure. It can be complicated by post-dural puncture headache (PDPH) after both diagnostic and therapeutic procedures. The aim of this study is to identify the incidence, risk factors and clinical characterization of PDPH in the inpatient setting of the main tertiary neurology hospital in Kuwait.
