Despite the high prevalence of headaches in youths, quality of life (QOL) has not been well examined. We examined QOL in a clinical sample of children with headaches and compared it with children with other chronic diseases.<\/jats:p>\n                  <jats:p>Methods. A survey study was conducted of 572 consecutive patients (mean age, 11.4 \u00b1 3.6 years) who presented with headaches to a children\u2019s headache center. Children and parents completed the Pediatric Quality of Life Inventory, Version 4.0 and a standardized headache assessment. Results were compared with established norms for healthy and chronically ill children.<\/jats:p>\n                  <jats:p>Results. Most patients (99%) had a clinical diagnosis of migraine: 85% met the International Headache Society migraine criteria, and 40% had chronic daily headaches. Total Pediatric Quality of Life Inventory, Version 4.0 score was lower for the entire group (73.1 \u00b1 14.4) compared with healthy norms (83.0 \u00b1 14.8) and lowest for children with chronic daily headaches (70.5 \u00b1 15.5). The impact on QOL of children with migraine was similar to that of children with arthritis and cancer.<\/jats:p>\n                  <jats:p>Conclusions. QOL of children with headaches is significantly affected by their health condition. The impact of headaches on QOL is similar to that found for other chronic illness conditions, with impairments in school and emotional functioning being the most prominent.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1542\/peds.112.1.e1","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2004,8,13]],"date-time":"2004-08-13T20:43:47Z","timestamp":1092429827000},"page":"e1-e5","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":328,"title":["Quality of Life in Childhood Migraines: Clinical Impact and Comparison to Other Chronic Illnesses"],"prefix":"10.1542","volume":"112","author":[{"given":"Scott W.","family":"Powers","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Division of Psychology, Cincinnati Children\u2019s Hospital Medical Center"},{"name":"University of Cincinnati College of Medicine, Cincinnati, Ohio"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Susana R.","family":"Patton","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Division of Psychology, Cincinnati Children\u2019s Hospital Medical Center"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Kevin A.","family":"Hommel","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Division of Psychology, Cincinnati Children\u2019s Hospital Medical Center"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Andrew D.","family":"Hershey","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Division of Neurology, Cincinnati Children\u2019s Hospital Medical Center"},{"name":"University of Cincinnati College of Medicine, Cincinnati, Ohio"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"417","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2003,7,1]]},"reference":[{"key":"2021121003401956800_R1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","unstructured":"Bille B.
