‘Airplane headache – an entity whose time has come to fly?’ by R Allan Purdy, Cephalalgia, June 2012; vol. 32(8): pp. 587–588, DOI: 10.1177/0333102412445221.

The authors have identified two errors in this paper:

In paragraph 6, the sentence:

In the current circumstance, however, with only a few case reports in the past it is difficult to determine if the reported cases are simply observations for a specific trigger for a primary headache disorder, or are related to transient inner ear trauma.

Should read:

In the current circumstance, however, with only a few case reports in the past it is difficult to determine if the reported cases are simply observations for a specific trigger for a primary headache disorder, or are related to transient barotrauma.

In paragraph 10, the sentence:

Attempts to clear the middle layer by maneuvers to open the Eustachian tubes are generally not successful.

Should read:

Attempts to clear the middle ear by maneuvers to open the Eustachian tubes are generally not successful.

The author apologises for these errors.
