AB  - Up  to  1%  of  emergency  department  visits  are  for  complaints  of  headache.  The  vast  majority  of  headaches  in  children  have  a  benign  etiology.  Factors  associated  with  serious  or  dangerous  causes  of  headache  include:  preschool  age,  occipital  location,  recent  onset  of  headache,  and  inability  of  the  child  to  describe  the  quality  of  the  head  pain.
