Migraine is one of the leading causes of disability worldwide among the population under 50. It's economic indirect burden is mostly determined by reduction of work productivity both by absenteeism and presenteeism. Migraine work related burden was usually underestimated by commonly used patients reported outcomes (PROMs), until the introduction of the HEADWORK questionnaire, evaluating working difficulties and the factors that negatively impact work-related tasks. The investigators aim to assess the influence of anti-CGRP monoclonal antibodies on migraine work-related burden by means of this specific PROM.
Migraine attributed burden is a complex and multifaceted entity encompassing patients, families, and society repercussions. It is identified with both an ictal burden, the consequences of pain and associated symptoms on individuals functioning during the migraine attack itself, and interictal burden, namely the limitations experienced between the attacks.
The disease burden is also associated with direct and indirect economic repercussions. According to a recent study, indirect costs mainly related to reduced work productivity, seems especially relevant. Reduction of work productivity may be defined in terms of absenteeism, loss of paid workdays, and presenteeism. The latter condition refers to days of impaired working performance due to migraine, and it is responsible of higher indirect costs. Many factors play a role in the identification of presenteeism, both related to the disease itself and the working place, making it difficult to precisely quantify it.
Commonly used PROMs have several limitations, this is why a specific PROM, known as HEADWORK questionnaire, was created to assess work-related difficulties and impairment in migraine individuals. HEADWORK is a 17-item, two-scale questionnaire that evaluates working difficulties in general or specific skills (such as problems solving or starting new tasks), and the factors that negatively impact work-related tasks (such as noise and brightness of the workplace).
Monoclonal antibodies directed against the Calcitonin Gene Related Peptide pathway (mAbs) represent a new targeted migraine preventive treatment. A recent study assessed the impact of mAbs in working-age migraine individuals, showing that the drug costs are compensated by reductions in both absenteeism and presenteeism, starting within the first three months of mAbs treatment Primary outcome is to assess changes in HEADWORK questionnaire, reflecting work-related difficulties, across one year treatment with mAbs in a population of migraine individuals.
