Traumatic lumbar puncture i.e., bleeding into the spinal canal during a lumbar puncture may worsen the prognosis of a leukemia patient as the cancer cells from blood may enter the central nervous system (1). Together with medical professionals Injeq is aiming to avoid this pitfall in demanding pediatric lumbar punctures.
