Postpunkční cefalea v porodnictví.

Postdural puncture headache (PDPH) is a relatively common iatrogenic complication (about 1% of all neuroaxial punctures) in obstetrics. The reasons for higher incidence in pregnant women compared to the general patient population are mainly the physiological and pathophysiological differences in pregnant women, but also the increasing number of neuroaxial blockades used. Because untreated postdural puncture syndrome can result in fatal complications, the basic principle of treatment is a complex multimodal approach consisting of all available conservative and invasive therapies, adequate communication and psychological support of the patient. The aim of this article is to provide an overview and current views on the pathophysiology and treatment of this complication. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
