Spinal CSF Leak of Canada is a national health charity, fueled by volunteers and donors, with a vision to improve the health and lives of sufferers from spontaneous intracranial hypotension (SIH) caused by spinal cerebrospinal fluid leaks ("CSF"), and to help equip the Canadian medical community to combat this condition within the country.
We seek to achieve our goal through a number of means:
1. Raising awareness of the condition among the healthcare professionals and general public across Canada, and positioning Spinal CSF Leak Canada as a trusted source of information regarding the condition;
2. Fundraising to assist in advancing medical research relating to the causes, diagnostic testing, treatments and post-care treatment/outcomes of spinal CSF leaks; and
3. To provide patient advocacy and a forum for those suffering with spinal CSF leaks.
At Spinal CSF Leak Canada we understand what patients are going through. We want you to know you are not alone.
