Objective[edit | edit source]
HIT-6 was developed to assess the impact of headaches on a patient's daily life. It covers 6 items questioning the frequency of the things below;
- severe pain,
- pain-related functional limitation, the feeling of urge to lie down, feeling too tired to do work or daily activities, the feeling of irritation and concentration difficulty on work/daily activities.[1] [2]
Intended Population[edit | edit source]
People with migraine or other severe headaches. [1]
Method of Use[edit | edit source]
It is a self-report measure that the form is given to the patient to fill out. The 5 responses in each item (never, rarely, sometimes, very often, or always) have a numerical value (6, 8, 10, 11, and 13, respectively). A higher score in the possible 36-78 score range indicates a higher impact. [2]
