Summary

The aim of this study is to define the sympathetic skin response of migraineurs in the facial area. This will be achieved by exposing healthy volunteers and migraine patients to various stress stimuli (pain, visual stimulation, auditory stimulation and a mathematical challenge), and recording sympathetic skin response in the facial area.

Conditions

  • Migraine Disorders

Interventions

OTHER

Pain stimulation

Pain will be simulated with an electric shock 25 mlAMP over the median nerve

OTHER

Visual stimulation

Visual stimulation will be performed by a flicker of light on a computer screen at 15 Hrz for 0.3 seconds

OTHER

Auditory stimulation

Auditory stimulation will be delivered through headphones with a sound at 500 Hrz at 85 decibels for 0.3 seconds

OTHER

Mental stress

A mathematical challenge will be displayed on a computer screen that must be quickly solved
