Sponsor: Bandırma Onyedi Eylül University
Summary
The aim of this study is to investigate the effects of a video- and brochure-based physiotherapy and exercise program on migraine symptoms, neck disability, cognitive functions, and quality of life in patients with migraine. Hypotheses H1: The video-based physiotherapy and exercise program has an effect on migraine symptoms in patients with migraine. H2: The video-based physiotherapy and exercise program has an effect on neck disability in patients with migraine. H3: The video-based physiotherapy and exercise program has an effect on cognitive functions in patients with migraine. H4: The video-based physiotherapy and exercise program has an effect on quality of life in patients with migraine. H5: The brochure-based physiotherapy and exercise program has an effect on migraine symptoms in patients with migraine. H6: The brochure-based physiotherapy and exercise program has an effect on neck disability in patients with migraine. H7: The brochure-based physiotherapy and exercise program has an effect on cognitive functions in patients with migraine. H8: The brochure-based physiotherapy and exercise program has an effect on quality of life in patients with migraine. Participants diagnosed with migraine who meet the inclusion criteria and voluntarily agree to participate in the study will be randomly assigned to three groups using block randomization. The study will be conducted online. Before the intervention, participants will be asked to complete the Demographic Information Form, Migraine Disability Assessment (MIDAS) Questionnaire, Mig-Scog Questionnaire, Neck Disability Index (NDI), and SF-12 Quality of Life Questionnaire via an online Google Form. Group 1 will receive a video-based physiotherapy and exercise program. Group 2 will receive a brochure-based physiotherapy and exercise program. Group 3 will serve as the control group. Participants in the intervention groups will be instructed to perform the exercises three times per week for 12 weeks, with one session per day, consisting of 10 repetitions for each exercise. At the end of the 12th week, all assessments will be repeated to evaluate the effects of the intervention.
