About this trial

The study of the ability to predict pain in a migraine attack, through premonitory symptoms and through an ambulatory monitoring device through real-time recording of hemodynamic variables, is one of the strategic lines of research of the unit. of Headaches at the Hospital de La Princesa since 2013 together with the Complutense and Polytechnic University of Madrid. Their results have been reflected in various publications (Pagán J, et al. Sensors 2015; Gago-Veiga AB, et al. J Pain Res 2018) and have promoted the creation of several invention patents.

Eligibility criteria

This trial accepts healthy volunteers

Qualifiers

Age between 15 years and 69 years.

Diagnosed with migraine by a headache neurologist and according to the criteria proposed by ICHD-3.

History of migraine of at least 1 year of evolution.

Normal neurological examination.

Disqualifiers

Presence of another type of headache, with the exception of headache due to excessive use of analgesic medication.

Cognitive deficiency or any other pathology that may prevent or make it difficult for the patient to perform the study correctly.

Neurological focus in the examination.

Pregnancy or breastfeeding period.

Trial population

Trial outcomes

Primary outcomes

1

Development of a prediction strategy for the onset of migraine

Develop a prediction strategy for the onset of migraine attacks in patients with episodic migraine, based on hemodynamic and clinical variables of migraine attacks.

Time frame
From the beginning of treatment, which is the initial visit, to 2 months of follow-up

Secondary outcomes

1

Posibility of predict the onset of pain in a migraine attack

To analyze whether it is possible to predict the onset of pain in a migraine attack, through ambulatory and non-invasive monitoring of physiological variables.

Time frame
From the beginning of treatment, which is the initial visit, to 2 months of follow-up
2

Individualized prediction algorithm

Implement an individualized prediction algorithm that allows real-time prediction of the symptomatic phase of the migraine attack.

Time frame
From the beginning of treatment, which is the initial visit, to 2 months of follow-up
3

Effectiveness of the prediction model

Measure the effectiveness of the prediction model both at the individual level and in a large group of patients.

Time frame
From the beginning of treatment, which is the initial visit, to 2 months of follow-up
