Complications; Anesthesia, Spinal and Epidural, in Pregnancy Clinical Trial
Official title:
Postdural Puncture Headache After Spinal Anesthesia for Cesarean Section, Two Different Needles.
The aim of the study is to observe the rate of postdural puncture headache observed after
spinal anesthesia in cesarean section patients.
Two kind of spinal anesthesia needles will be used:
1. 26 Gauge Quincke (cutting-tip needle)
2. 26 Gauge Atraucan (atraumatic needle)
The investigators will observe:
1. Number of spinal punctures
2. Time required for the spinal anesthesia procedure
Patients will be evaluated after 7 days for:
1. Headache
2. Backache
It is a known phenomenon that spinal anesthesia sometimes results in headache.
The aim of the study is to observe the rate of postdural puncture headache observed after
spinal anesthesia in cesarean section patients.
Two kind of spinal anesthesia needles will be used:
1. 26 Gauge Quincke (cutting-tip needle)
2. 26 Gauge Atraucan (atraumatic needle)
We will observe:
1. Number of spinal punctures
2. Time required for the spinal anesthesia procedure
Patients will be evaluated after 7 days for:
1. Headache
2. Backache
2 kind of spinal anesthesia needles will be used, but no comparison will be made. This is an
observational study. Although literature gives different rates of postdural puncture
headache for these two needles, we observe the same rate of headache in our clinical
practice. We want to define the real rate of postdural puncture headache in patients
undergoing cesarean section with spinal anesthesia.
