Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frameDescription
post spinal puncture headache (PDPH)one week after surgeryFor assessing PDPH, patients will ask whether they experienced headache through the use of a dichotomous scale (yes or no answer). The severity of PDPH will be assessed by the Dittmann's scale. This PDPH specific scale was composed of 4 levels of severity. Level 1 indicated minimal PDPH with no use of medications to manage PDPH with the patient able to participate in daily living activities without any inferences. Level 2 indicated mild PDPH that required the use of analgesics with patients still able to engage in daily living activities. Level 3 indicated moderate PDPH where analgesic administration was required to control the level of pain. Level 4 indicated severe PDPH with an epidural blood patch recommended.

Secondary

MeasureTime frameDescription
anxietyfifteen minutes before spinal anesthesiaAnxiety will evaluated by the Beck Anxiety Inventory (BAI), which consists of 21 questions about how the individual has felt in the preceding week regarding common anxiety symptoms, such as sweating, tremor, fear, and feelings of distress. The cutoff point for anxiety is 12, and scores between 1 and 11 are considered subsyndromal anxiety.
depressionfifteen minutes before spinal anesthesiaDepression will assess by beck depression scale. The Beck Depression Scale (BDS) uses a 3-point Likert type response scale to 21 questions. In the scale, a total of 0-13 points are considered 'normal', 14-25 points to indicate 'depression', and 26-63 points to indicate'severe depression'.
post spinal puncture backache (PDPB)one week after surgeryThe presence of backache will asses by using visual analogue scale (VAS). Patients will familiarized with 10 cm marked VAS for assessment of back pain, where 0 cm defines no pain, and 10 cm defines the maximum intolerable pain
