摘要

Background

Pediatric headaches are a common issue in emergency departments (EDs), presenting unique challenges in diagnosis and management.

Objectives

This review aims to explore the current landscape of pediatric headache management in EDs, identify challenges, and suggest solutions.

Methods

A narrative review was conducted using PubMed, Scopus, and Google Scholar to gather literature on pediatric headache management in EDs. Articles published in English within the last 10 years were prioritized, with key older studies considered. Inclusion criteria focused on studies addressing pediatric headache management in ED settings, while exclusion criteria removed studies on adult populations, non-ED settings, and non-peer-reviewed articles.

Results

The review highlights the complex nature of pediatric headaches, encompassing diverse presentations and underlying causes. Challenges include difficulties in accurate diagnosis, variations in treatment approaches, and the need for interdisciplinary care. Recent advancements in technology and non-pharmacologic treatments have shown promise.

Conclusion

Effective pediatric headache management in EDs requires improved diagnostic strategies, a multidisciplinary approach, and ongoing research to enhance patient treatment options and outcomes.
