Abstract: (11 Views) |
Migraine is a common neurovascular disorder often overlapping with sleep disturbances and comorbid conditions such as depression and fibromyalgia. These factors can impact disease severity and patients’ quality of life. The aim of this study was to investigate sleep quality and its associated factors in migraine patients attending Kowsar and Basat hospitals in Sanandaj during 2023-2024.
This descriptive–analytical cross-sectional study was conducted on 194 patients diagnosed with migraine. Demographic and clinical variables—including age, sex, duration of illness, migraine type, frequency and duration of attacks, and monthly number of medications—were collected. In this study, 194 migraine patients with a mean age of 34.41 ± 8.13 years were evaluated, of whom 78.4% were female. Univariable analyses showed a significant association between poor sleep quality and monthly attack frequency, monthly medication usage, chronic migraine, headache severity, presence of fibromyalgia, and depressive symptoms (P<0.05). However, in the multivariable logistic regression model, only the monthly migraine attack frequency and monthly medication usage remained as independent predictors of poor sleep quality.
Sleep disturbance is prevalent among migraine patients. The results of this study indicate that disease burden indicators, particularly monthly attack frequency and medication consumption, are independently associated with poor sleep quality. Attention to appropriate management of migraine attacks and medication use may be effective in improving sleep quality and enhancing the quality of life for these patients.
