Description

Angelina Koehler, CPNP-PC, joins us from the Headache Clinic with the Childen's Hospital of Colorado to discuss pediatric headache diagnosis and management. This presentation will review the pathophysiology of migraine headaches and the epidemiology in pediatric patients.

Lastly, she will provide guidance for lifestyle managements as well as acute and preventative treatment options.

• Identify migraine as a prevalent and disabling neurological condition in children and adolescents
• Differentiate primary and secondary headache disorders to drive diagnosis in patients with presumed migraine
