Year: 2024

Type: article

Abstract: Postdural puncture headache (PDPH) is a common complication of neuraxial techniques with an incidence of 1- 2%. It is classified by the International Classification of Headache Disorders 3rd edition (ICHD-3) as a headache attributed to low cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) pressure, caused (1) by loss of CSF exceeding its production rate . PDPH can be debilitating, with severe implications affecting daily activities, delaying recovery and extending hospital stay with associated health care costs.
