PrimaryLength of Stayenrollment dayLength of stay will be calculated as total time of encounter as well as time from doctor encounter to disposition decision
PrimaryIncidence of Immediate and Post-discharge Complications.72 hours
Subjects will be monitored for both immediate and post discharge complications up to 72 hours after enrollment that include: persistent local pain, bleeding, infection, and inadvertent intravascular injection resulting in seizure or possible cardiovascular collapse.
SecondarySymptomatic Relief of Headache20 minutes

No headache relief 4. Headache worsened 2. Treatment failure, defined as requirement for additional medication administered in the ED due to incomplete pain relief from the paraspinous bupivacaine injections or the initial dose of intravenous prochlorperazine. 3.
