Description
The Pediatric Migraine Disability Assessment (PedMIDAS) headache disability questionnaire is completed by the patient and his/her parent and is reviewed with the clinician or study staff. It captures the impact of headaches on school performance (three questions), activities at home (one question on homework or chores), and social and/or sports functions (two questions). The PedMIDAS is scored by summing the answers across the six questions. If a range is provided as an answer, either use the high end of the range or prompt for a single answer. The frequency and severity are not scored but can be used for clinical reference.

| 6. How many days did you participate in these activities, but functioned at less than half your ability (do not include days counted in the 5th question)? | _________ |
| Total PedMIDAS Score | _________ |
| Headache Frequency | _________ |
| Headache Severity | _________ |
Scoring
The PedMIDAS is scored by summing the answers across the 6 questions. If a range is provided as an answer, either use the high end of the range or prompt for a single answer. The frequency and severity are not scored but can be used for clinical reference.
