Tóm tắt

To assess the incidence of postdural puncture headache and its effects on patients' activities of daily living, we interviewed 325 adult patients subjected to a diagnostic lumbar puncture during a 1‐year period. Two hundred and eighteen (67%) of the subjects replied to the questionnaire; 41 (19%) of these were diagnosed as having suffered a postdural puncture headache. Impairment of the activities of daily living persisting for 1 week or more was experienced by 16 (7%) of the subjects.
