Official title: Exploring the Psychosomatic Factors Influencing and Moderating the Efficacy of Holistic Care and Personalized Treatment for Migraine Patients: A Prospective Longitudinal Observational Study

This research project aims at exploring the psychosomatic factors that influence and moderate the efficacy of holistic care and personalized treatment for migraine patients. It is a prospective longitudinal observational study. The project's goal is to understand how physical, psychological, spiritual, and social factors affect the care and treatment outcomes for migraineurs. The study will include participants aged 18 to 65, who meet the International Headache Society's criteria for migraines. It will utilize a range of methodologies including questionnaires, interviews, and medical records to collect data on various factors like lifestyle, psychological state, and social support. The project will assess the effectiveness of treatments, compliance, and other outcomes such as emotional and sleep conditions.

Read the detailed description

In addition to that, the participants will fill out questionnaires that measures depression, anxiety, well-being and migraine related disability.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Migraine attack frequency

    The frequency of migraine attacks will be assessed by the number of days with migraine attacks recorded in the migraine diary.

    Measured: 3 months

  2. Migraine attack intensity

    The intensity of migraine attacks will be assessed by the Numeric Rating Scale (NRS), ranging from 0 (no pain) to 10 (worst pain imaginable). Higher scores indicate greater pain intensity.

    Measured: 3 months

  3. Migraine attack duration

    The duration of each migraine attack will be recorded in the migraine diary, measured in hours.

    Measured: 3 months

  4. Effectiveness of acute medication

    The effectiveness of acute medication will be assessed by a 4-point scale measuring the degree of pain relief after medication administration, recorded in the migraine diary:

    1. No effect at all
    2. Minimal effect, headache slightly improved
    3. Good effect, headache significantly improved
    4. Very effective, pain completely resolved

    Measured: 3 months

Secondary outcomes (6)
  1. Compliance rate of migraine diary

    The compliance rate of migraine diary will be calculated as the percentage of days with appropriately completed diary entries out of the total days of participation.
