Does it hurt to do a lumbar puncture needle check?

Jan 05, 2022

There is no pain at all when doing lumbar puncture. It is done under intravenous anesthesia. The child is fasted for 4-6 hours beforehand. Before lumbar puncture, the nurse will give the child some short-acting anesthetics intravenously so that the child will be sedated immediately. In the sleep state, the doctor operates under ECG monitoring, and the children feel like they have slept, and the waist puncture is done unknowingly.

However, in domestic hospitals, local anesthesia is mostly used. Doctors first use a relatively thin needle to administer local anesthetics at the puncture site, so that the nerves of the skin and subcutaneous tissue will be less sensitive, and subsequent punctures and operations will not be performed. It will feel too painful.
