Study Details

Brief summary:

A prospective study that investigates the impact of circadian rhythm disturbances due to daylight saving time transitions on migraine patients.

The Primary aim is to investigate the impact of springtime DST (March 12 2023 at 2 AM on Sunday) on sleep metrics in patients with migraine headaches. Secondary aim is to examine the association between incidence of migraine headaches and sleep metrics with time transitions.

Participants will be provided with a Withings non-wearable/contactless sleep tracker, which will be placed under the mattress for a period of 4 weeks (2 weeks before and 2 weeks after) during daylight saving time transition in March, 2023. Withings Health Mate app will be downloaded to the participant's smartphone to collect Sleep Data. Headache diaries will be provided to log the details of the migraines during the study period. Morningness - eveningness questionnaire (MEQ) will be used to categorize subjects on the chronotype spectrum.
