Mechanical Pain Sensitivity, Headache Burden, and Quality of Life in Episodic and Chronic Migraine - A Cross-Sectional Study

Обзор

Migraine is one of the most prevalent neurological disorders and is associated with a substantial individual and societal burden. In chronic migraine, central and peripheral sensitization mechanisms are considered key pathophysiological factors and may manifest, among other features, as altered mechanical pain sensitivity. Quantitative assessment of mechanical pain sensitivity using pressure algometry is an established method; however, it is partly dependent on examiner technique and measurement protocols. The Algopeg® represents a standardized instrument for assessing mechanical pain sensitivity and may serve as a practical complement or alternative to classical pressure algometry. To date, evidence regarding the use of the Algopeg® in migraine populations remains limited. In addition to increased mechanosensitivity in trigeminal and extra-trigeminal regions, peripheral nerve structures, such as branches of the greater occipital nerve and the supraorbital nerve, may show sensitivity to mechanical stimuli during neurodynamic testing or palpation. This may have clinical relevance, as these regions are often targeted in symptomatic and prophylactic treatments. The aim of this study is to systematically investigate mechanical pain sensitivity, headache-related outcomes, and quality of life in patients with episodic and chronic migraine. Furthermore, the study aims to compare pressure algometry and Algopeg® measurements and to explore the clinical relevance of mechanosensitivity in specific peripheral nerve regions using a standardized assessment protocol.

Вмешательства

  • Диагностический тест pressure pain algometry
    Pressure pain algometry will be compared with an alternative tool to evaluate a potentially faster and more cost-effective method for assessing mechanical hypersensitivity in migraine. Furthermore, neurodynamic tests targeting mechanosensitivity of neural soft tissues will be examined with regard to their validity in primary headache disorders.

Первичные конечные точки

  • Pressure Pain Algometry and neurodynamic testing for mechanical hypersensitivity [Срок оценки: Regarding the observational character of the study the participants are screened in one session expecting a total time frame of 15 minutes on day 1.]
