“…In this study, patients with BMI of greater than 24.9 were 8.738 more likely to develop PDPH than patients with BMI of less than 18.5 which is consistent with the Study conducted in University of California, San Diego, USA 13 , Indicates; BMI more than or equal to 25 kg/m 2 (obese) were more likely to experience PDPH than those non Obese patients (<25 kg/m 2 ). Some studies were also support this finding 36 , 37 .…”

In our study, there was no association between BMI and PDPH probably because only 3.2% patients had a BMI >30 kg/m 2 .…”
