ABSTRACT

The purpose of this study was to test the feasibility and usefulness of the International Classification of Headache Disorders, third edition, beta version (ICHD-3beta), and compare the differences with the International Classification of Headache Disorders, second edition (ICHD-2). Consecutive first-visit patients were recruited from 11 headache clinics in Korea. Headache classification was performed in accordance with ICHD-3beta. The characteristics of headaches were analyzed and the feasibility and usefulness of this version was assessed by the proportion of unclassified headache disorders compared with ICHD-2. A total of 1,627 patients were enrolled (mean age, 47.4±14.7 yr; 62.8% female). Classification by ICHD-3beta was achieved in 97.8% of headache patients, whereas 90.0% could be classified by ICHD-2. Primary headaches (n=1,429, 87.8%) were classified as follows: 697 migraines, 445 tension-type headaches, 22 cluster headaches, and 265 other primary headache disorders. Secondary headache or painful cranial neuropathies/other facial pains were diagnosed in 163 patients (10.0%). Only 2.2% were not classified by ICHD-3beta. The main reasons for missing classifications were insufficient information (1.6%) or absence of suitable classification (0.6%). The diagnoses differed from those using ICHD-2 in 243 patients (14.9%). Among them, 165 patients were newly classified from unclassified with ICHD-2 because of the relaxation of the previous strict criteria or the introduction of a new diagnostic category. ICHD-3beta would yield a higher classification rate than its previous version, ICHD-2. ICHD-3beta is applicable in clinical practice for first-visit headache patients of a referral hospital.

ABSTRACT

O termo cefaléia do tipo tensional define as cefaléias primárias anteriormente denominadas cefaléias de contração muscular, psicogênicas, psicomiogênicas, de estresse e de tensão. Essas denominações revelavam-se ambíguas e controversas, incluindo simultaneamente aspectos clínicos e propostas de fisiopatologia, não sendo universalmente aceitas e fisiopatologia, não sendo universalmente aceitas e dificultando a realização de estudos aceitos pela comunidade científica. Com a classificação internacional de cefaléias de 1988, as cefaléias do tipo tensional puderam ser melhor definidas e hoje, com a uniformidade de critérios, constituem-se no tipo mais prevalente de cefaléias primárias. Seus mecanismos são controversos e possui fisiopatologia complexa, que envolve processos centrais de disfunção antinociceptiva e periféricos de comprometimento muscular. Apresenta-se nas formas episódica e crônica e o seu tratamento divide-se em preventivo e das crises. O tratamento preventivo inclui o uso de antidepressivos tricíclicos e para algumas correntes o uso de relaxantes musculares de ação central. O tratamento das crises utiliza analgésicos e (ou) cafeína e (ou) relaxantes musculares e deve ser limitado a duas vezes por semana, uma vez que essa dor pode transformar-se em cefaléia crônica diária. Abordagens acessórias, como terapia cognitivo-comportamental, técnicas de relaxamento, biofeedback e a melhora geral das condições de vida, também são preconizadas. Há importante associação, na forma crônica, com distúrbios emocionais e do sono e o prognóstico é bom quando o paciente é corretamente tratado
