This educational video is the first in a four-part Headache Masterclass brought to you by Australia and New Zealand Headache Society (ANZHS).

This session utilizes a case of a migraineur presenting to a general practitioner for refinement of migraine management as a basis to explore the themes of taking a targeted and rational history from a headache-suffering patient, making the diagnosis of migraine recognising and managing migraine triggers.

Neurologists Professor Richard Stark and Dr Christina Sun-Edelstein and GP Dr Anita Munõz then explore these learnings via a panel discussion facilitated by A/Professor Lauren Sanders.

Sponsor: This activity is sponsored by ANZHS.

The society aims to advocate for patients that suffer from headache disorders and promote quality of clinical care and research in the field. We are associated with the International Headache Society (IHS) and the Australian and New Zealand Association of Neurologists (ANZAN) and represent predominantly neurologists with research and clinical interests in headache medicine.
