Summary

This study looked at whether follow-up phone calls from a headache nurse help people with chronic headaches take their preventive medicine as prescribed. 147 adults with migraine, tension-type headache, cluster headache, or hemicrania continua were randomly assigned to nurse calls or usual care with their general practitioner. The study was terminated early, so results are limited.
