Previous studies have been limited by practice effect, and variable populations. METHODS: Participants completed 1 month of daily testing with a computerised cognitive battery involving a simple reaction (SRT), choice reaction (CRT) and a working memory test (WM). Results were correlated with their diary to identify interictal scores, and scores during each phase of a migraine, and non-migraine headache days. RESULTS: A total of 16 patients with episodic migraine participated. During the headache phase of a migraine, responses to SRT, CRT and WM tasks were significantly slower and less accurate than interictally. During the postdrome, WM task performance was slower and less accurate. Non-migraine headache days were not associated with significant change. CONCLUSION: The headache and postdromal phase of a migraine day was associated with objective evidence of cognitive dysfunction in patients with episodic migraine. date: 2024-04-12 date_type: published publisher: Springer Science and Business Media LLC official_url: https://doi.org/10.1007/s10072-024-07520-w oa_status: green full_text_type: pub language: eng primo: open primo_central: open_green verified: verified_manual elements_id: 2270474 doi: 10.1007/s10072-024-07520-w medium: Print-Electronic pii: 10.1007/s10072-024-07520-w lyricists_name: Matharu, Manjit lyricists_id: MSMAT80 actors_name: Flynn, Bernadette actors_id: BFFLY94 actors_role: owner funding_acknowledgements: [Monash University] full_text_status: public publication: Neurological Sciences event_location: Italy issn: 1590-1874 citation: Ray, JC; Darby, D; Butzkueven, H; Matharu, MS; Hutton, EJ; (2024) Cognitive assessment during the phases of a spontaneous migraine: a prospective cohort study.
