Abstract Background and objective : Spinal anesthesia represents the technique of choice for elective caesarean section, unfortunately one of the adverse events after SA is postdural puncture headache . It has a significant effect on the patient’s postoperative wellbeing.The previous studies conducted, do not conclusively prove that pencil-point spinal needles decrease the incidence of postdural puncture headache.in this study we have tried to find out whether a pencil-point needle is a better alternative than the classic cutting spinal needle, commonly used, in parturients who are at risk of postdural puncture headache. Method: With a randomized comparative clinical trial study, from June 2016 to September 2016, 118 parturients were allocated into two groups; group P fifty eight and group C sixty parturients received spinal anesthesia for elective caesarean section with 27 gauge pencil-point and 27 gauge cutting spinal needle respectively. Postoperatively, all the parturients were questioned for five consecutive days about the onset, characteristics, duration, and associated symptoms of any headache. Result: There were no statistical differences between both groups regarding age,weight,height, body mass index (BMI), gestational age and the number of attempts. The overall incidence of PDPH was 4.24%, and in group P (1.7%) and in group C (6.7%) parturients developed PDPH, there is no statistical difference between two groups and P value= 0.18. Conclusion: Both spinal needles offer good handling characteristics with comparable incidence of PDPH. Key words: postdural puncture headache, pencil-point spinal needle, spinal anesthesia.

I.1 Introduction Nowadays spinal anesthesia (SA) for cesarean section (CS) is a technique of choice because of its safety, low cost than general anesthesia and reliability. Use SA avoids the risks of general anesthesia such as maternal aspiration and airway related problms.SA cause less anesthetic exposure to the neonate ,less intraoperative blood loss,less chance of uterine atony and for better postoperative pain relief.

I.2 Caeserean Section A caesarean section is a surgical procedure in which an incisions are made through woman's abdomen and uterus to deliver her baby.
(2)
I.3 Spinal Anaesthesia I.3.1 Anatomy and technique The spinal dura mater is a tube extending from the foramen magnum to the second segment of the sacrum. It contains the spinal cord and nerve roots that pierce it. The dura mater is a dense, connective tissue layer made up of collagen and elastic fiber running in a longitudinal direction. The thickness of the posterior dura is also variable and unpredictable, which may have implications in the occurrence of PDPH.
(3)
The arachnoid mater is a delicate, nonvascular membrane that is closely attached to the outermost layer, the dura mater. Between the pia mater and the arachnoid mater is the space of interest in spinal anesthesia, the subarachnoid space. In this space are the CSF, spinal nerves, a trabecular network between the two membranes, blood vessels that supply the spinal cord.
(4)
Spinal anesthesia is the injection of local anesthetic into the subarachnoid space at the L2-L3 or L3-L4 level below the spinal cord (in adult , spinal cord ends at L1) to produce surgical anesthesia.Physiological effects of spinal anesthesia under the influence of posture and gravity, nerves caudad to the injection site are completely blocked. Cephalad to the injection site, there is a differential block, with the small sympathetic nerves blocked two to six dermatomes higher than the sensory block which, in turn, is usually higher (5, 6)
than motor block .
2
I.3.2 Indications: Spinal anesthesia can be used for lower abdominal, pelvic and lower limb surgery expected to last for less than 3 hours. Only preservative-free agents should be used for spinal anesthesia because some preservatives may be neurotoxic or induce arachnoiditis.
(5)
I.3.3 Complications of spinal anaesthesia :
(7)
-hypotension -Bradycardia -Technical difficulty - Post-dural puncture headache -High spinal anaesthesia -anesthesia failure -incomplete block -lower extremity neuropathy I.4 Postdural puncture headache : Cerebrospinal fluid is produced primarily in the choroid plexus at a rate of approximately 0.35 ml/min (500 ml daily) and reabsorbed through the arachnoid villa. The total CSF volume in adults is maintained around 150 ml, of which approximately half is extracranial, and gives rise to normal lumbar opening pressures of 5 to 15 cm H2O in the horizontal position (40–50 cm H2O in the upright position). It has been shown experimentally that the loss of approximately 10% of total CSF volume predictably results in the development of typical PDPH symptoms, which resolve promptly with (8)
reconstitution of this deficit.
3
I.4.1 Incidence of Postdural Puncture (PDPH) : Postdural puncture occur with a wide range of reported frequency, from 1% in some studies to as much as 70% in others . This wide range is due to the fact that certain patient populations and dural puncture procedures carry quite variable degrees of risk for PDPH. Patients who receive dural punctures with large-bore needles (diagnostic myelography and inadvertent dural puncture during labor epidural anesthesia) are very likely to sustain PDPHs. Patients who receive spinal anesthesia with small (24 –30-gauge) non-cutting needles generally have significantly reduced risk of PDPH, with rates as low as 2% or less.
(9)
I.4.2 Risk factors : Postdural puncture is more frequently noted in pregnant women receiving spinal anesthesia and in patients less than 50 years of age.Unfortunately the spinal anesthesia especially in parturients who are more vulnerable for their age and gender ; associated by PDPH which may restrict the patient acceptance to this type of anesthesia and increase the mother suffer (10,11) postoperatively. In obstetric patients, a lowering of intra-abdominal pressure after delivery of the fetus may lower epidural pressure and thus theoretically increase CSF) leakage from a dural hole. Additionally, hormonal changes at the time of delivery may make the cerebral vasculature especially reactive and (12) predispose parturients to PDPH. I.4.3 pathophysiology of PDPH : The needle produces a dural defect and consequent spinal fluid leakage into the epidural space, resulting in a decrease of the CSF pressure and volume. low CSF pressure will result in a loss of the normal cushioning effect on the brain, This effect is exacerbated with the assumption of an upright posture because of pooling of CSF in dependent structures. The resulting motion of the brain results in traction on pain sensitive structures (13) (meningeal membranes, blood vessels and nerves). Other proposed mechanisms for the pain of PDPH include a resultant dilatation of the cerebral blood vessels as a compensatory mechanism to restore intracranial volume, which may further exacerbate the symptoms 4
.(9)
I.4.4 Character of pain : The headache is typically described as a throbbing pain in the frontal and occipital regions that appears within 5 days after lumber puncture (LP) , which occurs or worsens when upright position is assumed and improved or disappears lying down . pain may radiate to the neck and may be associated with nausea, vomiting, neck stiffness, tinnitus, hearing loss or photophobia. Usually, it resolves spontaneously within one week. I.4.5 Post-dural puncture headache criteria :
(14,15)
(14)
A-headache that worsens within 15 minutes after sitting or standing and improves within 15 minutes after lying , with at least one of the following and fulfilling criteria C and D -Neck stiffness -Tinnitus -Hyperacusis -Photophobia - Nausea B- Dural puncture has been performed C- Headache develops within 5 days after dural puncture D- Headache resolves spontaneously either : - Spontaneously within one week - Within 48 hours after effective treatment CSF leak I.4.6 Treatment : Conservative methods of treatment of PDPH include reassurance,bed rest, analgesia and hydration. When this management fails, oral or intravenous caffeine is helpful, but if PDPH is severe, it is best treated with an epidural blood patch.(14)
5
I.5.1 The ideal spinal needle(16) -easy to handle -cause less incidence of PDPH -have a high success rate in identifying subarachnoid space with the easy presence of CSF. -should not deform, resisting to tissue forces during introduction
I.5.2 Spinal needles and their relationship to PDPH : Four technical factors that have been discussed as possibly reducing the incidence of PDPH are: The smaller needle diameter or gauge (G) , Larger needles leave larger holes, allow for greater CSF leak and, thus, cause more PDPHs ; insertion of the needle with the bevel parallel to the long axis of the spine, rather than in a perpendicular direction ;reinsertion of the stylet before needle withdrawal . An additional factor important in reducing PDPH is the shape of the tip of the spinal needle blunt-tipped spinal needles that separate dural fibers and allow recoil with minimal tearing significantly reduce CSF leak andPDPH.(15, 9 , 17)
Aim of the study: to compare the frequency of PDPH between 27 gauge pencil-point and cutting 27 gauge spinal needles used for spinal anesthesia in elective cesarean section.

Patients and methods One hundred and eighteen parturients ASA II, aged 21–40 years, weighing 63–104 kilograms, height 144–169 cm, normotensive and with single pregnancy undergoing elective CS under SA were candidate for this randomized simple blinded study. The proposal of the study was approved by scientific and ethical committee of School of Medicine, Faculty of Medical Sciences, University of Sulaimani. Before including the patient to the study, detailed oral informed consent was taken. All cases were chosen from maternity teaching hospital in Sulaimani city, from June 2016 to September 2016. Exclusion criteria of the patients included history of headache,occipital neuralgia or migraine, parturient requiring more than three attempts of lumbar puncture, hypertension(chronic hypertension , preeclampsiaeclampsia and gestational hypertension) and contraindication to spinal anesthesia( absolute : patient refusal, coagulopathy, severe local or systemic infection and allergy to any of the drugs. Relative: fixed cardiac output state, hypovolemia, spinal deformity and active neurological disease) parturient s were randomly divided into two groups: Group P : 58 parturients received SA with 27 gauge pencil-point spinal needle (Dr.J) Group C : 60 parturients received SA with 27 gauge cutting spinal needle (Dr.J) All parturients were blinded to the needle utilized. The anesthetist conducting the procedure was not blinded as the two needles have a different appearance. the parturients fasted from midnight, for at least eight hours, and received oral ranitidine 150 mg the night before and on the morning of the surgery. Before starting the anesthetic procedure monitors such as pulse oximetry, and non-invasive blood pressure (NIBP) were attached and monitored throughout the intraoperative period. An intravenous access was established with an 18G I.V. cannula or two 20G I.V. cannula in the dorsum of the hand and preloading with (1L) crystalloid fluid within 20 minutes was done in all the parturients.
7
The parturients were placed in flexed sitting position, and after skin preparation with antiseptic solution spinal anaesthesia was performed in (L2L3 or L3-L4) intervertebral space midline approach, using spinal needle either(pencil point 27G ,Dr J )or 27G cutting spinal needle (Dr.J) and inject 0.5% hyperbaric bupivacaine 12.5 mg and fentanyl 10 mcg intrathecally then parturient was laying supine with left pelvic tilt. Oxygen was administered via the nasal cannula at flow rate 2 l/min. Mean arterial blood pressure was monitored at regular five minute intervals. If the systolic blood pressure decreased by more than 20% from the baseline, incremental bolus of 5 mg intravenous ephedrine were used. Complications like nausea, vomiting, bradycardia were managed symptomatically. Postoperatively, all the parturients were questioned for five consecutive days about the onset, characteristics, duration, and associated symptoms of any headache. PDPH is characterized by (1) Postural, aggravated by sitting or standing, relieved by laying supine (2) Frontal or occipital (3) May be accompanied by nausea, vomiting, neck stiffness, diplopia, tinnitus. PDPH was treated with reassurance,bed rest, hydration, and paracetamol 500mg orally, four times daily.(paracetamol is no risk to the suckling infant since less than 0.25% of maternal single dose is estimated to reach the child) Headaches were classified as: Mild headache: not interfering with daily activity Moderate headache: interfering with daily activity. Severe headache: preventing patient from standing and associated with nausea and vomiting.

Statistical analysis : After data collection and prior to data entry and analysis, the variables of study were coded. Data entry performed via using an excel spreadsheet then the statistical analysis was performed by SPSS program, version 21 (IBM SPSS statistics package software program for statistical analysis). The data presented in tabular and diagrammatic forms to show the frequency and relative frequency distribution of different variables among the both groups of patients ( the group of patient dealt with cutting needle and those dealt with pencil point needle). Multiple Bar charts were used to show the comparison of the some variables of the study between these two groups. Some variables were categorized into two and more groups as (age groups, BMI groups, and Gestational age groups). Chi-square tests were used to compare the categorical data of different variables of participants between both study groups. Independent t test was used to compare different quantitative variables as age, gestational age, and BMI between these two groups. For all statistical tests P values of 0.05 were used as a cut off point for the level of statistical significance

Results After collecting data of 120 parturients schedualed for elective cesarean section; 58 in group P (two parturients exclude from the study because spinal anesthesia was established in more than three attempts) and 60 in group C; the results had been arranged and statistically analyzed in this manner
Regarding the age of parturients there were no significant difference in both groups and the P value > 0.05, the average age of parturients was 30.6 ± 4.8 and 30.7 ± 4.9 years in group P and C, respectively. as shown in table 1 and figure 1 Table 1 : age distribution of parturients in both groups Age / Group

Discussion Despite we used small diameter (27Gauge) spinal needle, the overall incidence of PDPH was 5/118 (4.24%), Obstetric patients are at high risk of PDPH because of their sex and young age. After delivery of the fetus, the reduced epidural pressure increases the rate of CSF leakage through the dural opening leading to loss of buoyant support of the brain, thereby causing traction on the meninges, a pain-sensitive structure. In addition as a consequence of the decreased CSF volume, there is compensatory (10)
vasodilatation and increased intracranial blood volume.
But it was low compare to study of Tanveer Baig,who studied Sixty women were randomly divided into two groups with 30 women in each group. The frequency and severity of PDPH was compared between 25G cutting and non cutting needles in patients under going elective cesarean section under spinal anaesthesia. He reported out of 60 patients, 21.7% .(18) (13/60) patients had developed PDPH This difference related to size of spinal needle had been used,he used lager size 25guage compare to 27gauge that had been used in our study, the incidence of headache after lumbar puncture is directly related to the size of the needle used for the dural puncture , Headache is more common with a large needle because of a larger leakage of CSF through the inflicted (18) puncture of the dura. In our study regarding incidence of PDPH,in group P 1/58 (1.7%) and in group C 4/60 (6.7%) parturients developed PDPH, there is no statistical difference between two groups,P value= 0.18 ; this is agree with the following studies: Dr. Vibhu Srivastana, at el,after they studied 200 patients of ASA I&II obstetric & non-obstetric undergoing elective/emergency.surgery under subarachnoid block. Patients were randomally allocated into four groups. Group A – Non Obstetric patients with Whitacre 27 G, Group B – Obstetric patients with Whitacre 27G. Group C – Obstetric patients with Quincke 27G. Group D – Non Obstetric patients with Quincke 27G.They found there was no incidence of PDPH in-group A and D, while 1/50(2%) patient in-group B .(19) and 2/50(4%) in group C developed PDPH
15
abdullayev at el,which their study involved 220 parturients undergoing elective cesarean delivery under spinal anesthesia. Parturients were divided into two groups as, Group A (n = 110) and Group Q (n = 110); who received spinal anesthesia via 26 gauge atraumatic spinal needle and via 26-G Quincke (cutting) spinal needle respectively. They reported, Ten patients (9.2%) in Group A and 11 (10.3%) in Group Q had developed PDPH.there .(20) were no significant difference between both groups
Dr.Anju Shah,Dr. P.K.Bhatia et al,after they studied 75 female parturients scheduled for Caesarean section were divided into three groups of twenty five patients each according to the size and shape of the needle used for spinal anaesthesia - 25 G Quincke (Group I), 27 G Quincke (Group II) and 27 G Whitacre (Group III) to assess the incidence and severity of PDPH associated with the needle insertion. They found the incidence of PDPH was20 % in group I, 12.5 % in group II and 4.5 % in group III. The difference in PDPH .(21) between groups was not statistically significant
John Lynch, Stefan-Mario Kasper et al,after they studied 398 patients ASA grades l-lll aged 13-84 years undergoing elective orthopedic procedures . Patients received spinal anesthesia in a random manner with either a 27-gauge Quincke needle (Group I; n = 199) or with a 27- gauge Whitacre needle (Group ll; n = 199). They reported the incidence of PDPH was 1 % (2/199) in the Quincke group and 0.5% (1/199) in the Whitacre .(22) group,the difference was not statistically significant
Puolakka R, Jokinen M et al, which their study involved 400 spinal anesthesia patients, 200 patients received SA with 27 gauge Quincke type and other 200 with27 gauge pencil point needle. They found the overall .(23) incidence of PDPH was 2.5% were not related to needle type
16
Jose Francisco, Giovani Alves et al, they studied 300 patients, aged below 50 years, submitted to spinal anesthesia who were divided into three groups, according to needle type and gauge: GI (27G Quincke), GII (29G Quincke) and Glll (27G Whitacre).They reported total incidence of headache was 1.6%.two patients in group l ,two patients in groupll and one patient in group .(16) lll developed PDPH and there were not significant difference But our study disagree with: Ana Castrillo et al,they studied 154 patients, 77 patients were assigned to undergo lumber puncture with Quincke type and 77 with atraumatic type needle, both of them 22G. they found the incidence of PDPH was 22.43% with Quincke type needle and 8.51% with atraumatic type needle, P value = 0.04 . this mean that large size needle produce large dural hole and more CSF leak as a result more PDPH and make the incidence of PDPH in both .(15) groups statistically different Anirban Pal, Amita Acharya et al,they studied 320 obstetric patients, posted for Cesarean section under subarachnoid block, were randomly assigned into two groups W and Q, where 25G Whitacre and 25G Quincke spinal needles were used, respectively. They noted the incidence of PDPH was 5% in group W and 28.12% in group Q, and the difference in incidence was statistically significant (P<0.001). This disagreement may be due to .(24) sample size and they used larger diameter 25 guage spinal needle If the incidence of a complication is small, for example 5%, the number of patients required to demonstrate a statistically significant result will lie in the region of 500-600. Such numbers may be difficult to achieve in clinical trials . Events which are clinically important may therefore be ’missed’ by the ( 25) statistical analysis.
17
Conclusion We conclude that pencil point spinal needle has little advantage over cutting spinal needle regarding incidence of postdural puncture headache.
