BACKGROUND: Heterogeneity amongst palliative care interventions in the intensive care unit (ICU) and their outcomes has meant that, even when found to be effective, translation of evidence into practice is hindered. Previous evidence reviews have sug...

Development and evaluation of a screening tool to aid the diagnosis of a cluster headache (2020)
Journal Article
Buture, A., Boland, J. W., Dikomitis, L., Huang, C., & Ahmed, F. (2020). Development and evaluation of a screening tool to aid the diagnosis of a cluster headache. Brain Sciences, 10(2), Article 77. https://doi.org/10.3390/brainsci10020077

Cluster headache (CH), a severe primary headache, is often misdiagnosed and mismanaged. The aim of this study was to develop and evaluate a screening tool to aid the diagnosis of CH. We developed a novel 12-item screening tool. This was comprised of... Read More about Development and evaluation of a screening tool to aid the diagnosis of a cluster headache.
