Migraine is a common health problem in youth that is ranked highest for disability among neurological conditions and is one of the leading reasons for school absences. Children with migraines frequently are seen by the school nurse for care, sometimes before ever being seen by another healthcare provider for evaluation and treatment. As such, school nurses have the unique opportunity to provide education and resources to children with migraines and their family. This article provides information on the Headache Action Plan Program for Youth (HAPPY), a project involving the provision of live and online migraine education and management resources to school nurses, children, families, and primary care providers in an effort to improve migraine recognition and care in the community.
偏头痛是青少年常见的健康问题,在神经系统疾病中导致残疾的程度排名最高,也是学生缺课的主要原因之一。患有偏头痛的儿童经常会找学校护士寻求护理,有时甚至在找其他医疗服务提供者进行评估和治疗之前就这样做了。因此,学校护士有独特的机会为患有偏头痛的儿童及其家庭提供教育和资源。本文提供了关于青少年头痛行动计划项目(HAPPY)的信息,该项目旨在为学校护士、儿童、家庭和初级保健提供者提供现场和在线的偏头痛教育及管理资源,以提高社区对偏头痛的认知和护理水平。
