Influence of the pre-operative time in upright sitting position and the needle type on the incidence of post-dural puncture headache (PDPH) in patients receiving a spinal saddle block for anorectal surgery

A spinal saddle block can be a safe method for anorectal surgery with a low rate of complications when performed with the right technique. A dreaded complication is the post-dural puncture headache (PDPH), which can be decreased by the use of non-cutting spinal needles. Regrettably, cutting Quincke...

Zusammenfassung:A spinal saddle block can be a safe method for anorectal surgery with a low rate of complications when performed with the right technique. A dreaded complication is the post-dural puncture headache (PDPH), which can be decreased by the use of non-cutting spinal needles. Regrettably, cutting Quincke (Q)-type needles are still widely used for economic reasons. Besides size and design of a spinal needle, the pre-operative time in upright sitting position may also influence the incidence of PDPH after spinal saddle block.
