Frequency of headaches in patients over 80. A preliminary report.
We evaluated 44 old patients (mean age 84 years) in order to study the frequency of headaches. The frequency found in our sample is higher in comparison to other studies. Further studies including a larger number of patients are needed to obtain more incisive results.
