We evaluated the anxiety state of 57 parents whose children required lumbar puncture (LP) as part of a diagnostic workup. We also examined parental attitude about their presence during the procedure. The parents were randomly divided into two groups: 29 (51%) were present during the LP (group A) and 28 (49%) remained outside (group B). There were no differences in the anxiety scores between the two groups. All parents in group A and seven in group B (25%) reported a preference for staying with the child should he/she need LP in the future. The results also showed that allowing the parents to be present during LP does not aggravate their anxiety compared with controls.
