简要总结
Primary headache can be triggered by light or noise. Getting rest in a quiet and dark environment for the treatment of acute headache is recommended for relief of pain during an attack. It is hard to provide this kind of environment in a busy emergency department. We aimed to determine if eye masks and noise reduction head sets are effective in reducing pain scores, fastening pain relief when used together with standard care. We also aimed to see if these methods were preferred over standard care.
