Why is it easier to perform a lumber puncture on an adult?

Doctors are trained to perform lumbar punctures on adult. Their lumbar spine, which is where the needle is inserted, is naturally in a different position due to the height of an adult. Since children are smaller, and have a shorter spine, their lumbar spine is in a different position. It's not that much more difficult to do it on a child, the doctor just has to break from his natural thought process and locate the lumbar spine in a different position.


Why is a lumber puncture done in the small of the back?

The Lumbar Spine refers to the bottom six vertebrae in the spine. Most strain on the Lumbar spine occur between L4 and L6, where the back bows. This forces blood from the rest of the back to flow over to even-out the blood flow in the back. Therefore, the small of the back has minimal blood flow, making a puncture easier.
