AbstractThe incidence of postdural puncture headache, its severity, time of onset and duration following spinal anaesthesia in female subjects using 25 gauge Quincke needles are discussed in this paper. Postdural puncture headache was seen in only 3% of the cases. The headache appeared mainly on the 1st postoperative day and was associated with nausea and vomiting in one case; and it disappeared by the 2nd to 3rd day following administration of mild analgesics and anti-emetics.
