Clinical experience with the use of drawings in diagnosing headache in children
In this article, we will focus on our own experience with children headache drawing, which is based on Staftrom et al.´s (2002) low structured administration and analysis of headache symptoms and behavioral changes. Apart from the presentation of this method, we will briefly mention the broader context of the topic (the developement of drawing and the ability to perceive pain depending on cognitive maturity in childhood) and the real pictures we have obtained. It can be seen as an instruction and an ecouragement to distribute this inexpensive method, whith is popular wiht children.
