Epidemiology, investigation, management, and outcome  of headache in emergency departments (HEAD study)-A multinational observational study

CONCLUSION: Diagnosis and management of headache in the ED is challenging. A small group of patients have a serious secondary cause for their symptoms. There is wide variation in the use of neuroimaging and treatments. Further work is needed to understand the variation in practice and to better inform international guidelines regarding emergent neuroimaging and treatment.PMID:34726783 | DOI:10.1111/head.14230
