Fluctuations in cerebral blood flow were associated with orthostatic headaches in children, suggesting that the headaches are due to impaired intracranial homeostasis. As orthostatic headache can have multiple causes, the term "head and/or neck pain attributed to orthostatic (postural) hypotension" should be replaced with a more inclusive term.
