Abstract

We evaluated the impact of a headache education program in a workplace setting. A 45-minute standardized educational program was delivered to 492 participants at eight companies. Participants completed questionnaires regarding their headaches and headache management techniques, the Short Form (SF)-36, and the Headache Disability Inventory (HDI) before and 1 month after the presentation. The intervention significantly improved health-related quality of life, decreased headache-related disability, and promoted the use of self-management techniques.
