Abstract
Patients with a chief complaint of non-traumatic headache (HA) represented 2.7% of emergency department (ED) visits in 2005 (3.1 million visits). Although the majority of these patients represent benign etiologies, some have serious and life-threatening conditions. Distinguishing patients who require urgent diagnostic studies and treatment requires the application of accepted evidence-based strategies and measurable indicators of quality care. These strategies and indicators are useful in understand patterns of care delivered and improving patient outcomes.
