Abstract

Migraine affects up to 10% of the primary school children (6-14 years old) and its diagnosis is challenging. The purpose of our study is to present the Hungarian-language validation process of the McMaster Paediatric Migraine Headache Questionnaire, which is an easy-to-use questionnaire for workers in both outpatient and inpatient care.The linguistic validation was conducted according to an international protocol: permission of the corresponding author, two independent forward translations, a synthesis of the translations, back translations and consensus team review. The comprehensibility of the resulting Hungarian version was tested during a pilot study involving 31 young children with headaches. The reliability of the questionnaire was examined by calculating the Cronbach's alpha coefficient showing the internal consistency of the items.A total of 31 people filled the questionnaire, their mean age was 12.58 ± 3.3 years (16 girls, mean age 11.56 ± 3.1 years; 15 boys, mean age 13.7 ± 3.2 years). Almost three quarters of the participants (23 people, 74.2%) reported 5 or more headache days in a month. Based on the results of the McMaster Pediatric Migraine Questionnaire, 41.9% (13 people) of the participants suffered from migraine, and 9.6% of them had migraine with aura. The respondents rated the comprehensibility of the questionnaire as 1.93 on a scale from 1 (very easy) to 10 (very hard), which indicates easy completion. The Cronbach's alpha value of the questionnaire is 0.709, which means adequate reliability, but the complex validation process requires a larger sample.The final Hungarian version of the questionnaire used is suitable for the next step of linguistic and cross-cultural adaptation, by examining a larger patient population for the screening of childhood migraines in both outpatient and inpatient care.
