Abstract :
Migraine is the second most common cause of headache, which itself and Its complications have a high burden on the community. The aim of this study was to investigate the relationship between sleep quality and headache severity in patients with migraine.
The present descriptive cross-sectional study was performed on 200 patients referred to the clinic and neurology ward of Ayatollah Rouhani Hospital in Babol, who was diagnosed with a migraine by a neurologist. Patients completed three questionnaires which were Migraine Impairment and Disability Assessment (MIDAS), VAS to assess headache severity, and Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI). Data were collected in SPSS software and analyzed by Kruskal-Wallis and Mann-Whitney tests.
The mean age of patients was 32.93 ± 8.12 years, the mean time of migraine diagnosis patients was generally 8.55 ±7.53 years, and the mean pain severity according to the VAS questionnaire was 6.49 ± 2.24, and the mean PSQI score was 12.44 ± 2.91. The findings showed that sleep quality was not associated with headache severity, duration of migraine, presence of aura, age, and severity of migraine disability, but sleep quality was poorer in women than men. Women were also poorer in the areas of mental quality of sleep, sleep efficiency, and sleep disorders.
The findings of the present study showed that people with migraines generally have poor sleep quality. Poor sleep quality is more pronounced in women. However, there was no significant relationship between migraine severity, headache severity, and its presence with sleep quality.
