Brief Summary

The goal of this study is to learn more about the Headache Screening Questionnaire in people with Headache. The main question is: Does the lower limit of a 95% confidence interval of the HSQ in physiotherapy during a period of 2 to 4 weeks reach at least 0.4?

Conditions

Migraine; Tension-Type Headache

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

• Kappe Value

  The HSQ uses nominal variables for screening the two primary headaches with defined cut-offs of 6 and 8 points for migraine and TTH, respectively. Therefore, for the test-retest reliability analysis, a Cohen's kappa with corresponding 95% confidence interval is calculated for both migraine and TTH.

  Participants are assessed based on criteria (chapter: participants). Eligible individuals complete the HSQ online. A reminder email is sent after 2 weeks for the retest. Participants have 2 weeks to complete it. Late participants are excluded from analys

Interventions

Headache Screening Questionnaire DIAGNOSTIC_TEST

The Dutch Headache Screening Questionnaire (HSQ) is the only screening questionnaire based on ICHD-3 which has at least moderate confidence in its criterion validity according to GRADE. The HSQ has already been translated into Portuguese and validated5. The HSQ has only 8 items and requires little time to complete. Due to its good sensitivity, the HSQ screening questionnaire is particularly well suited to exclude migraine.
