Brief Summary
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.

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (1)
Changes in cerebral dynamics with MRI
Cerebral blood flow and CSF
After 3 months
Study Arms (2)
Postdural puncture headache after lumbar puncture
Group of patients with aged 20-40 years undergoing planned neurological work-up including a lumbar puncture (LP). The group will include 40 subjects with and 40 subjects without PDPH.
Postdural puncture headache after accidental dural puncture
Group of parturients with EDA. The group will include 40 subjects with accidental dural puncture (ADP) with PDPH and 40 subjects without ADP and PDPH.
Interventions
All included subjects will be examined with MRI
Eligibility Criteria
Two different study population with PDPH and controls.
You may qualify if:
- Postural puncture headache Age 20-40
You may not qualify if:
- Other central neurological disorders except the actual
- Acute medical condition
- Pregnancy
- Pacemaker, or other medical implants that are not MRI-compatible
- Invasive procedures on the central nervous system or surgery on the spine or brain in the last 12 months.
