Murray MJ et al. - Improving the accuracy of lumbar puncture (LP) in neonates should reduce the incidence of hemorrhagic contamination of cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) samples. Using the measured technique, LPs performed by less experienced doctors and those performed in the premature (28 to 37 weeks' gestation) group were more successful than those performed using the blind technique. The measured technique has the potential to be a useful tool for doctors in the early stages of their training.
