1 Headaches and Kids Jennifer Bickel, MD Assistant Professor of Neurology Co-Director of Headache Clinic Children s Mercy Hospital
2 Overview Headache classifications and diagnosis Address common headache myths Recommendations for headache treatment and reducing disability
3 Headaches In Children Third most common reason for school absence. (Newacheck 1992) 12% of American adolescents miss a day of school a month due to headaches (Fenichel 2001)
4 Headaches In Children (Lewis 2002) Migraine Prevalence: 1.2% to 3.2% in 3 to 7 year olds 4% to 11% in 7 to 11 year olds 8% to 23% in year olds
5 Headaches In Children (Lewis 2002) Migraine Prevalence: 1.2% to 3.2% in 3 to 7 year olds 4% to 11% in 7 to 11 year olds 8% to 23% in year olds Prevalence of any type of headache: 37% to 51% in 7 year olds 57 to 82% by age 15
6 Secondary Headaches
7 Secondary Headaches In Children Cerebral Tumors Intracranial hypertension (pseudotumor cerebri) Infectious Vascular Substance Abuse Carbon Monoxide Hypertension Post-Traumatic Ocular Constipation
8 Secondary Headaches: Cerebral Tumors 2.4 per 100,000 children under 15 years of age 62% of children with a brain tumor will have a headache Less than 1% will present with headache alone More than half of children with brain tumors will have five or more neurological deficits The Childhood Brain Tumor Consortium. The epidemiology of headache among children with brain tumour. J Neuro-Oncol 1991:10:31-46.
9 Secondary Headaches: Ocular Controversial Children frequently are referred to eye clinics for headaches Pain is typically behind eyes, absent in the morning, mild in nature, relieved with eye rest Proper correction will improve headaches in over 70% of headaches related to refractive errors R Gil-Gouveia MD, I.P Martins MD, PhD (2002) Headaches Associated With Refractive Errors: Myth or Reality? Headache: The Journal of Head and Face Pain 42 (4),
10 Sinus Headache Over 80% of sinus headaches meet IHS criteria for migraines Chronis sinus disease is not a common cause for headaches Weather changes are a top trigger of migraines Migraines can be cause nasal congestion and be relieved by sinus headache medications.
11 Diagnosis of headaches Relies upon history and physical Imaging and laboratory work is often not necessary Reassurance of benign nature of headaches is high importance
12 Primary Headaches
13 Primary Headaches in Children Migraines with and without aura Tension Type Headaches New Daily Persistent Headache Chronic Daily Headache Childhood periodic syndromes that are commonly precursors of migraine (migraine variants)
14 Primary Headaches in Children Migraines with and without aura Tension Type Headaches New Daily Persistent Headache Chronic Daily Headache Childhood periodic syndromes that are commonly precursors of migraine (migraine variants)
15 Primary Headaches in Children Migraines with and without aura Tension Type Headaches New Daily Persistent Headache Chronic Daily Headache Childhood periodic syndromes that are commonly precursors of migraine (migraine variants)
16 Primary Headaches in Children Migraines with and without aura Tension Type Headaches New Daily Persistent Headache Chronic Daily Headache Childhood periodic syndromes that are commonly precursors of migraine (migraine variants)
17 Primary Headaches in Children Migraines with and without aura Tension Type Headaches New Daily Persistent Headache Chronic Daily Headache Childhood periodic syndromes that are commonly precursors of migraine (migraine variants)
18 IHS-II Classification Of Migraine Lasts 1 or more hours if untreated, often up to 72 hours
19 IHS-II Classification Of Migraine Lasts 1 or more hours if untreated Moderate to severe headache Worse with movement Throbbing Unilateral (kids have bilateral headaches)
20 IHS-II Classification Of Migraine Lasts 4 or more hours if untreated Moderate to severe headache Worse with movement Throbbing Unilateral Photophobia and phonophobia Nausea and/or vomiting
21 Diagnosis Of Migraine Only 15% associated with auras Often preceded by neck pain Associated with allodynia

24 Headache Myths
25 Myth 1 Migraine headaches are caused by blood vessel changes.
26 Myth 1 Migraine headaches are caused by blood vessel changes. Blood vessel changes can occur in migraines but the prominent pathophysiology is destabilization of cortical neurons. More similar to epilepsy than stroke.
27 Myth 2 Most adolescents with daily headaches have depression or anxiety.
28 Psychiatric Co-Morbidities in Adolescent Chronic Daily Headache 21% Major Depression 19% Panic Disorder 20% Current High Suicide Risk Most correlated to migraine with aura Shuu-Jiun Wang, Kai-Dih Juang, Jong-Ling Fuh, and Shiang-Ru Lu. Psychiatric comorbidity and suicide risk in adolescents with chronic daily headache Neurology, May 2007; 68:
29 Myth 3 Food allergies are a common cause of headaches
30 Myth 3 Food allergies are a common cause of headaches Food may trigger headaches but it is not an allergic process
31 Controversial Difficult to prove Common triggers Nitrates MSG Citrus Fruits Chocolate Cheeses Nuts Diet and Migraine
32 Myth 4 If stress clearly causes a headache, it is more likely to be a tension type headache.
33 Myth 4 If stress clearly causes a headache, it is more likely to be a tension type headache. Mild tension headaches and severe migraines can both be triggered by stress.
34 Myth 5 Pain can be accurately assessed by observation and distractibility.
35 Myth 5 Pain can be accurately assessed by observation and distractibility. Pain is a subjective experience that can not be accurately assessed by observation. Distractibility is part of most pain conditions. We encourage our patients to act normal during headaches.
36 Treatment of Headache in Adolescents and Children
37 Lifestyle Changes Regular sleep schedules Eat every four hours Avoid daily caffeine Increase water intake Identify triggers Avoid frequent use of abortive medications
38 Abortive Therapy
39 Abortive Therapy Treat as early as possible Keep medications at school Ensure proper dose of medication is given Limit to eight days a month Avoid narcotics Combination approach sometimes needed
40 Home Abortive Therapies Ibuprofen 10mg/kg per dose Acetaminophen 10-15mg/kg per dose Naproxen sodium 5-7mg/kg per dose Consider the addition of: Caffeine Diphenhydramine Anti-emetic
41 Pharmacological Prophylactic Therapies
42 Pharmacological Prophylactic Therapies Start if non-pharmacological approaches are ineffective or not feasible Indications: 4 or more headaches a month Abortive medicines ineffective
43 Options for headache prevention Natural supplements: magnesium, riboflavin, petadolex, feverfew Anti-epileptics Anti-hypertensives Anti-depressants Muscle relaxers
44 Non-pharmacological approaches for headache prevention Relaxation Techniques Progressive muscle relaxation, autogenic training, and self-hypnosis Biofeedback Cognitive-Behavioral therapy
45 No homebound Never complete homebound for headaches as it will likely intensify headaches. Aggressive school accommodations may be necessary to keep child in school. Frequent breaks Liberal access to water and snacks Partial days of school Limit high stimulation environments Address learning difficulties and stressors
