Improving Health Outcomes of Migraine Patients Who Present to the Emergency Department
Collectively, evidence shows that a combination of medication and behavioral therapy is most effective for migraine care. The ED is a critical point of contact with the health care system for many migraine patients; in current practice, it is a missed opportunity to initiate and establish a comprehensive migraine management paradigm. Behavioral headache treatments (e.g., progressive muscle relaxation (PMR), biofeedback, cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT)) are effective migraine treatment options that are essentially free of side effects. PMR has also been successful as a technique that patients can do independently. Studies have shown that combination pharmacological-behavioral therapy is most effective for migraine treatment.
Several aspects of this study are innovative, including: 1. Initiation of preventive medication in a timely manner for migraineurs who present to the ED. 2. Introduction of PM+PMR in the ED at a time that can serve as a teachable moment. 3. Introduction of a smartphone application-based product (a minimal contact based behavioral therapy) in the ED setting to reduce headache disability, frequency, and intensity.

Arms and Interventions
Participant Group / Arm |
Intervention / Treatment |
---|---|
Active Comparator: Acute Treatment+ED-initiated preventive medication +PMR
All subjects will be discharged on acute migraine therapy (naproxen, triptan) unless there is a contraindication and will also be started on topiramate (25mg/night) with a plan to increase the dose every week by 25 mg up to 100 mg/night.
Subjects will receive medicine along with progressive muscle relaxation therapy
|
Subjects in the PM group will be given acute migraine medication, preventive medication (topiramate), and the APP with the PMR component.
The smartphone app and/or the electronic pill bottles will be used to monitor adherence.
Other Names:
General Education Class consisting of basic migraine information of basic migraine information such as evidence-based ways to treat migraines: treat early, limit acute medications < 2-3 days/week, and call the primary care physician (PCP) if abortive medications are used more frequently.
Technique for learning to monitor and control the state of muscular tension
|
Active Comparator: Enhanced Usual Care (EUC)
Subjects will be given a general education session consisting of basic migraine information such as evidence-based ways to treat migraines: treat early, limit acute medications < 2-3 days/week, and call the primary care physician (PCP) if abortive medications are used more frequently.
Any migraine treatment decisions on discharge will be left up to the ED attending.
The RC will load the APP onto the subjects' smart phones but the PMR component will be blocked on the version of the APP that they receive.
All subjects will be asked to track headache frequency, intensity, and acute medication use on the APP.

What is the study measuring?
Primary Outcome Measures
Outcome Measure |
Measure Description |
Time Frame |
---|---|---|
Migraine Disability Assessment Scale (MIDAS) at 3 Months and Baseline
Time Frame: 12 Weeks
|
A decrease of 3 points in the MIDAS score corresponds to a one day reduction in headache related disability per month, a clinically meaningful difference.
|
12 Weeks
|
Secondary Outcome Measures
Outcome Measure |
Measure Description |
Time Frame |
---|---|---|
Perceived Stress Scale (PSS)
Time Frame: 12 Weeks
|
PSS scores are obtained by reversing responses (e.g., 0 = 4, 1 = 3, 2 = 2, 3 = 1 & 4 = 0) to the four positively stated items (items 4, 5, 7, & 8) and then summing across all scale items.
A short 4 item scale can be made from questions 2, 4, 5 and 10 of the PSS 10 item scale.
