Lumbar Puncture

These are mostly technical papers on lumbar puncture.  All are full text, free to view and require no subscriptions.  You may have to click through to get full text pdf in some cases.  You can suggest your own articles and I will load them for you - just send a comment with your link.

Click on the heading and you willl be taken through to a page with more detail.  You can then read or save the article you want.  It’s not pretty - formatting is hard to learn without making a real mess!  However, the facts are there.  I will add more on needle selection, technique, videos, patient information in due course.  There is of course already a lot of that on this site already, but I am trying to be comprehensive.
