Spontaneous intracranial hypotension (SIH) is an infrequent disease, related to a leak of cerebrospinal fluid. There are not controlled studies for this treatment.The main of this study is to demonstrate the superiority of the Trendelenburg position compared to supine position during 24 hours after an epidural blood patch for a spontaneous intracranial hypotension
Various treatments have been used for patient with spontaneous intracranial hypotension, but there is not definite approach. Some patients, fortunately, improve spontaneously. Bed rest and increased fluid intake have been advocate. The effectiveness of the caffeine has been shown in some studies, but durable beneficial effect is doubtful. The efficacy of steroids has not been established. However, although there have been no controlled studies, autologous epidural blood patch (EBP) can be considered the treatment of choice for patients. The success rate of EBP for a post lumbar puncture headache is about 90%, but for SIH, is very less about 50% after the first one and 77% after the second. The amount of blood injected must be sufficient. On the other hand, the leak is usually located on dorsal, above the prolonged rest must be respected. One study, have demonstrated, without randomization, a success rate of 90% with a prolonged Trendelenburg after EBP. We decided to do this study, to confirm a superiority of a 24 hours prolonged Trendelenburg position.
It's a monocentric study of parallel randomized open blind groups. Patients will be recruited by investigators in our headache emergency room. If the diagnose of SIH is confirmed (orthostatic headache from more than 5 days and less than 28 days with a normal MRI or with sign of SIH) study will be proposed.
After a signed information, the patients will be randomized in 2 groups, the investigator is blind of the randomized arm of patient
V1: inclusion V2 : 24 hours before EBP (headache, associated symptoms, HIT6) V3 : randomization and EBP V4 : first evaluation 30 minutes after standing (headaches, associated symptoms) V5 : phone evaluation (safety) D7 V6 : Evaluation at D15 (headache, associated symptoms, safety) V7 : Evaluation at D30 (headache, associated symptoms, control cerebral MRI, HIT6, safety) V8 : last evaluation D60 (headache, associated symptoms,HIT6 safety)
Collection of 2nd EBP, 3rd EBP, 4th EBP throughout the study up to J 92 maximum
