Blood Patch

Blood Patch is a medical procedure performed to alleviate symptoms related to a cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) leak. A CSF leak can occur after a spinal puncture or as a result of other medical conditions. During a blood patch, a small amount of the patient’s own blood is injected into the epidural space of the spine, creating a seal that helps to restore normal CSF pressure and alleviate symptoms.

At SpineMed Specialists, our skilled physicians employ precise techniques to locate the epidural space and administer a blood patch procedure. This method effectively seals the CSF leak, restoring normal pressure and alleviating associated symptoms. Throughout the entire process, we prioritize your comfort and well-being, taking the time to explain the procedure, address any concerns, and provide comprehensive post-procedure care.
