Randomized Controlled Trial
A randomized study to evaluate post-dural puncture headache after cesarean section: Comparison with median and paramedian approaches.
Although the most popular anesthesia technique for cesarean is spinal anesthesia, its most common complication is post-dural puncture headache (PDPH). ⋯ Spinal anesthesia with a median or paramedian approach at cesarean section has no effect on the incidence of PDPH, but we believe that there has been a need for further studies with larger or different patient populations.
