Article Synopsis
- Girls and women suffer from headaches more often than boys and men, prompting a study to explore gender differences in treatment effectiveness within the Dresden Child and Adolescent Headache Program (DreKiP).
- A total of 140 patients participated in a structured 15-hour program, and data were collected on headache frequency, intensity, and related daily limitations over six and twelve months post-treatment.
- Results indicated that girls had significantly higher headache frequencies and limitations in daily life compared to boys, but both genders showed improvement over time; however, there was no difference in treatment response between genders, suggesting that the factors influencing headaches in girls should be further explored.
Background: More than 2/3 of children and adolescents in Germany regularly suffer from headaches. Headache-related limitations in everyday life, school drop-out and educational impairment are common. Structured therapy programs for young headache patients are widely missing.
