Needle position may hold key to preventing spinal headaches

NCT ID NCT07436403

Summary

This study compares two different needle insertion techniques for spinal anesthesia to see which one causes fewer headaches after surgery. Researchers will enroll 142 adults having planned orthopedic or urology procedures at Mayo Hospital in Lahore. They'll randomly assign patients to receive either the midline (median) or side-angle (paramedian) approach and then track who develops headaches in the days following the procedure.
