Increased lumbar puncture success using a paramedian approach: A retrospective cohort study

Journal of Hospital Medicine, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Lumbar puncture (LP) is frequently necessary in hospitalized patients for diagnostic and therapeutic purposes. Traditional landmark identification by palpation of the lumbar spine and pelvis can see significant failure rates. A paramedian approach is an accepted, though less frequently used technique associated with higher success ...

Mechanical Treatment of Common Neuropathic Itch Syndromes: A Retrospective Observational Evaluation of Mckenzie Method for Brachioradial Pruritus and Notalgia Paresthetica

JEADV Clinical Practice, EarlyView.
In case a mechanical disco‐radicular conflict is at the base of BRP or NP, a spine‐directed approach in line with the McKenzie method is found to alleviate symptoms. ABSTRACT Background Brachioradial pruritus (BRP) and notalgia paresthetica (NP) are neuropathic itch syndromes that are often challenging to treat, typically managed within a ...

Predictors of Spontaneous Restoration of Lumbar Lordosis after Single-Level Transforaminal Lumbar Interbody Fusion for Degenerative Lumbar Diseases

Spine Surgery and Related Research, 2021
Introduction: Preoperative factors that predict postoperative restoration of lumbar lordosis (LL) are not well understood. To investigate whether preoperative postural correction of LL, sagittal malalignment, or lumbar flexibility are associated with the
