About this trial

Post-dural puncture headache (PDPH) or spinal (or post-spinal) headache is one of the most common side effects of spinal anesthesia, with an incidence of 6-36%. The incidence of this complication was reported to be 76-85% after accidental dural puncture in epidural anesthesia. It usually starts within several hours after spinal anesthesia, but sometimes it can be delayed for up to 2 weeks, which usually resolves within a few days
