Single-Item Versus Multiple-Item Headache Ratings in Service Members Seeking Treatment for Brain Injury.

CONCLUSION: The NSI single-item headache measure adequately captured headache severity in this military cohort. Use of the single-item NSI headache measure may minimize survey burden on participants whose primary complaint is not headaches, or who present with multiple symptoms. Future studies are needed to validate the single-item headache measure in other samples. PMID: 31334803 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]
