Acupuncture in the management of post-partum headache following neuraxial analgesia
International Journal of Obstetric Anesthesia , 10/01/09

Sharma A et al. – Women presenting with low pressure post–partum headache following neuraxial techniques are frequently offered an epidural blood patch, despite its inherent risks. The authors present two parturients with classical symptoms of low–pressure headache, who each received neuraxial labour analgesia without a documented dural puncture with a Tuohy needle. Both parturients were successfully managed using acupuncture rather than an epidural blood patch.
