It is associated with substantial clinical, psychological, and socioeconomic burden, including increased risk of vascular and psychiatric comorbidities, reduced quality of life, sleep disturbances, and decreased productivity. Neurofeedback (NF) has emerged as a promising non-pharmacological intervention aimed at promoting self-regulation of brain activity through real-time feedback and neuroplasticity mechanisms.\n\nObjective:\n\nThis study aims to evaluate the effectiveness of neurofeedback as an adjunct therapy in reducing the frequency and severity of high-frequency episodic migraine in adults. Secondary objectives include assessing changes in medication use, sleep quality, disability and functional impact, depressive symptoms, and the influence of common migraine triggers.\n\nMethods:\n\nA randomized controlled trial with two parallel groups will be conducted at the University Hospital of Salamanca. Participants will be adults (\\>18 years) diagnosed with episodic migraine (5-14 days\u002Fmonth). A total of 66 participants will be randomly assigned (1:1) to either a neurofeedback intervention group or a control group. The intervention consists of 60 neurofeedback sessions over 12 weeks, including EEG-based training aimed at reducing high beta activity (21-30 Hz) and increasing alpha activity (8-12 Hz), as well as blood volume pulse biofeedback. The control group will receive no additional intervention. Primary outcomes include migraine frequency and severity, while secondary outcomes encompass medication use, disability (MIDAS, HIT-6), sleep quality (PSQI), quality of life (MSQ), depressive symptoms (PHQ-9), and trigger-related variables. Assessments will be performed at baseline, 3 months, and 6 months. Data will be analyzed using repeated-measures mixed models (SPSS v28).\n\nExpected Results:\n\nIt is hypothesized that neurofeedback will significantly reduce migraine frequency and severity compared to control conditions, and improve associated functional, psychological, and sleep-related outcomes.\n\nConclusions:\n\nThis trial aims to provide robust evidence on the efficacy of neurofeedback as a complementary therapeutic approach for migraine, addressing the current need for well-designed randomized controlled studies in this field.",[69],"Episodic Migraine",[71,72,73,74,75,76,77],"neurofeedback","episodic migraine","migraine frequency","migraine severity","sleep quality","disability","quality of life","NOT_YET_RECRUITING","2026-06-16",{"date":81,"type":82},"2026-06-22","ACTUAL",{"date":84,"type":63},"2026-11-15",{"date":86,"type":63},"2027-12-31",{"name":5,"class":6},1]
