Where is the lumbar puncture performed? What position should we take?

Adults generally take the 3rd to 4th lumbar intervertebral space, and sometimes it can be performed in the upper or lower lumbar intervertebral space.

During lumbar puncture, doctors and nurses will assist you to take the occipital-side lying position, with your back flush against the edge of the bed, your head bent toward your chest, your hands tucked into your knees, your knees bent toward your abdomen, and your back should be arched back as much as possible to widen the intervertebral space. More favorable for piercing.
