The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the effectiveness of inflammation index (pan-immune inflammation value, systemic immune inflammation index, and systemic inflammatory response index) values, calculated from routine pre- and post-operative blood test (hemogram) results of pregnant women undergoing cesarean section under spinal anesthesia, in predicting postdural puncture headache. Significant results will allow for the early identification of the population at risk of developing PPH and the implementation of preventive measures. The secondary objectives of the study are to evaluate the effects of factors such as demographic data (age, height, weight, and body mass index) obtained from patient records and the hospital information system, number of births, blood group, infant birth weight, smoking, previous history of postdural puncture headache (PPH), or headache in general, on the development of postdural puncture headache (PPH), to determine the frequency of PPH, and to identify the symptoms accompanying PPH.
