Abstract

Aims: Migraine is a common, painful, and, in severe and chronic cases, debilitating disease characterized by frequent, unilateral, and pulsating attacks with moderate to severe intensity, sensitivity to light, nausea, or vomiting. This study aimed to investigate the effectiveness of Transcranial Direct Current Stimulation [tDCS] on Headache signs and sleep quality in Migraine patients. Method and Materials: The current research design was a semi-experimental type of pretest and post-test with a 2-week follow-up. The statistical population of this study was all patients suffering from Migraine in Yazd city. A sample of 30 people was selected using the available sampling method, and they were placed in two experimental and control groups by random sampling. The tools used in this research were the Ahvaz Migraine Questionnaire and the Pittsburgh sleep quality Questionnaire. The tDCS treatment method included 5 sessions of 20 minutes with a current of 2 mA. The data were analyzed using the analysis of covariance method. Findings: The results showed that there is a significant difference between the experimental and control groups in the scores of Headache signs and sleep quality in the post-test and follow-up [p<0/01]. Conclusion: The study showed that tDCS treatment has an effective role in improving Headache signs and sleep quality.
