About This Trial
To improve treatment for post dural puncture headache, its pathophysiology needs to be explored. Dural puncture alters CNS dynamics; using advanced MRI, we aim to investigate PDPHs pathophysiology explained by brain movement, cerebral blood flow, CSF dynamics and the effect of epidural blood patch.
