Abstract: Twenty years after diagnosis of pediatric headache, most patients continue to have headache, although the headache classification often changes across time. Most patients report moderate or severe headache and increasingly choose to care for their headaches pharmacologically.

“…Nonspecific medication given more than twice per week was noted in 13.5% of children with RH, being 7 times more frequently used in children with nonmigraine than in children with migraine headache [22] . Brna et al [23] found that nonprescribed medications were used by 70% of those with ongoing headaches, while prescribed medications were used by 14% of persons with headache. Despite the painful, costly and disabling features of headache, many patients with headache do not seek medical advice.…”

“…Eine hohe schmerzbezogene Beeinträchtigung findet sich nur bei einer Subgruppe, führt dann aber zu erheblichen negativen Konsequenzen für die psychische und psychosoziale Entwicklung des Kindes [8]. Unbehandelt persistieren die schweren chronischen Schmerzen in der Regel bis ins Erwachsenenalter [2]. Metaanalysen zeigen, dass ambulante (v. a. psychologische) schmerztherapeutische Maßnah-men für Kinder mit einer moderaten schmerzbezogenen Lebensbeeinträchti-gung sehr gut wirksam sind [9].…”

“…Abb. 2 Darüber hinaus stellen die Studienergebnisse ein weiteres Indiz dafür da, dass eine stationäre Schmerztherapie bei schwer beeinträchtigten chronisch schmerzkranken Kindern langfristig hilfreich sein kann [14]. Anders als in der Studie von Eccleston et al [7] konnte auch kurzfristig (nach 3 Monaten) eine signifikante Reduktion der Schmerzstärke nach einer stationären schmerztherapeutischen Intervention gezeigt werden und die Drop-out-Quote nach einem Jahr lag anders als bei Sherry et al [29], wo sie bei 52% lag, lediglich bei 18,5%.…”

“…Tension-type headaches and migraines may be part of a spectrum rather than distinct diagnostic entities. A common pathophysiological mechanism may explain the frequent co-occurrence of these headache types and evolution over time from one to the other (8,12).…”
