Person-Centric Approaches to Migraine: A Discussion with Nurse Practitioner Alicia Duyvejonck at the American Headache Society's Scientific Meeting

In this special episode of Talking Head Pain, Joe is live from the American Headache Society's scientific meeting with Alicia Duyvejonck, a nurse practitioner at Genesis Headache Clinic in Davenport, Iowa. Together they discuss a research poster to which they both contributed titled "Person-Centric Communications in Migraine: Delphi-Like Consensus on Best Practice." This study, conducted using the Delphi consensus model, involved headache neurologists, nurse practitioners, psychologists, and advocacy community representatives, focusing on enhancing communication between patients and health care professionals in migraine care. They emphasize the importance of person-centric communication and individualizing treatment, highlighting key recommendations for both providers and patients to improve understanding and reduce migraine stigma.

Join Joe and Alicia as they explore how effective communication is essential in managing this heterogeneous condition and fostering shared decision-making.
