Contraindications for lumbar puncture

Mar 21, 2022

Lumbar puncture is a practical method of diagnosis and treatment in clinical practice. It can effectively determine the properties of cerebrospinal fluid, measure the pressure of cerebrospinal fluid, and can also perform oxygen therapy and inject drug therapy. However, lumbar puncture also has many contraindications. During lumbar puncture, the patient's position may affect the patient's cardiopulmonary function. Patients with cardiopulmonary dysfunction should avoid lumbar puncture. In patients with brain herniation, puncture cannot be performed.

If the intracranial pressure increases, it is easy to lead to the formation of brain herniation, which can cause nerve damage. In addition, local purulent infectious diseases cannot be punctured, and patients with coagulation disorders cannot be punctured, otherwise it may increase the risk of spinal cord hematoma.
