Impact of spinal needle type on postdural puncture headache among women undergoing Cesarean section surgery under spinal anesthesia: A meta‐analysis

Journal of Evidence-Based Medicine, 2018
Spinal anesthesia is the most frequently performed anesthesia for cesarean section. The American Society of Anesthesiology recommends using pencil‐point spinal needles (SNs) over cutting‐bevel SNs to reduce postdural puncture headache (PDPH) in their ...
