Post-Dural Puncture Headache (PDPH) is a prevalent complication of epidural anaesthesia worldwide, generated by a cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) leak through an unintended opening of dura mater. At present, there is not an effective treatment for PDPH. This instantaneous new dural sealing system, which allows repair the lesion at the same time when it is caused, is designed to prevent the onset of PDPH in order to avoid further patient suffering, as well as reducing costs derived from the clinical problem.
The technology has been filled under patent application to the Spanish Patent and Trademark Office, with priority date 19/04/2017 adn in co-ownership with the Instituto de Biomecánica of Valencia (IBV). The international expansion is expected during the priority year through via the PCT
