Background: Lumbar puncture (LP) is commonly needed in hospitalized patients for both diagnostic and therapeutic purposes. Traditional landmark identification by palpation of the lumbar spine and pelvis often has a low success rate. There is strong evidence showing that the use of ultrasound leads to higher success rates, along with other important patient-centered outcomes such […]

PREDICTORS OF SUCCESSFUL LUMBAR PUNCTURES BY A MEDICINE PROCEDURE SERVICE

Even though bacterial meningitis is associated with high morbidity and mortality, the incidence is […]
