In a prospective clinical study we followed up 697 patients operated upon under spinal anaesthesia to determine the incidence of, and the factors predisposing to, post-spinal backache. The incidence of post-spinal backache, which occurs in approximately one in seven patients (13.1%) is comparable to that of post-spinal headache. This often neglected additional cause of post-spinal morbidity can be reduced by the use of atraumatic techniques and with small-gauge spinal needles for performing lumbar puncture.
在一项前瞻性临床研究中，我们对697例接受脊髓麻醉手术的患者进行了随访，以确定脊髓麻醉后背痛的发生率及其诱发因素。脊髓麻醉后背痛的发生率约为七分之一（13.1%），与脊髓麻醉后头痛的发生率相当。这种常被忽视的脊髓麻醉后发病的额外原因可通过采用无创伤技术和使用细规格脊髓穿刺针进行腰椎穿刺来降低。
