@ValZaph introduces @LorrainechowMD speaking on PDPH at #CASAM2022 #OBAnes
NB! Positional component no longer required for diagnosis, how to differentiate from many differentials hopefully coming up #OBAnes #CASAM2022
Pathophysiology, treatments and potential options. Diagnosis and risk factors. #OBAnes #CASAM2022
May not be self limiting - may not be innocuous. Chronic sequelae. #OBAnes #CASAM2022
Management of PDPH #OBAnes #CASAM2022
Management continued… remember caffeine causes seizures, theophylline not compared to multimodal analgesia #OBAnes #CASAM2022
Neuraxial opiates in management of PDPH #OBAnes #CASAM2022
Intrathecal catheters #OBAnes #CASAM2022
@DrWesleyEdwards takes over the management discussion regarding invasive management of PDPH #OBAnes #CASAM2022
Sphenopalatine Ganglion Block - not intranasal lidocaine… #OBAnes #CASAM2022
The jury is out? Does appear to provide relief, but it’s not long lived and the concern is that EBP as definitive treatment is delayed… #OBAnes #CASAM2022
Epidural Blood Patch - when, where, how much and what are the risks? #OBAnes #CASAM2022
EBP: ultrasound assists with lateral positioned EBP, but no good evidence on positioning during EBP #OBAnes #CASAM2022
Consider alternative diagnosis when considering repeat EBP, remember to follow up every patient (@AnaSjaus doing QI 😉) #OBAnes #CASAM2022
Summary from @DrWesleyEdwards #OBAnes #CASAM2022
Need a narrower presenters table for discussion 😉 #OBAnes #CASAM2022
