Device for the preventive prevention of migraine

摘要

A preemptive prophylaxis migraine method uses the following cognitive tests: Simple Reaction Time (103); Running Memory Continuous Performance Task (104); Matching to Sample (105); Mathematical Processing Task (106); and interprets the results as a percent of baseline indicator of need for prophylaxis (107). A preemptive prophylaxis migraine device includes a microprocessor having a memory; the aforementioned cognitive tests loaded into the memory; means for computing the score on a trial of these tests to establish a baseline, for storing the baseline in the memory, for computing the score of a subsequent trial of the tests, and for comparing the same to the stored baseline; and means for indicating a cognitive change.
