Although cluster
headache (CH) is considered one of
the most distinctive and painful primary
headache disorders in clinical
practice because of the brevity of
each attack, its management is not
always ergonomic or possible in the
Emergency Department. In case of
a previously competent diagnosis,
the Emergency Department’s team
should send the patient to a
headache centre where specialists
in the management of CH can handle
the pathology in the best way.
In our headache centre we treat
patients with CH attacks with a
hyperbaric chamber, confirming the
effectiveness of hyperbaric oxygen
in CH patients.
