ObjectiveTo determine work impact of chronic migraine (CM) versus episodic migraine (EM).MethodsData were from the 2005 American Migraine Prevalence and Prevention study, a longitudinal population survey of more than 11,000 migraineurs. Lost productive time (LPT) was measured as missed work hours plus reduced productivity hour equivalents.ResultsThose with CM were 19% less likely to be working for pay compared with migraineurs with
ConclusionsThe work impact of CM and high frequency EM will be underestimated if employment status is not measured. Notes
