Biz buçalışmada Develi yöresindeki migren tanısı alan hastaların özürlülük oranları üzerine etkili olan faktörleri inceledik.Gereç ve Yöntemler: Çalışmaya nöroloji polikliniğine baş ağrısı nedeni ile başvuran 16-48 yaş aralığındaki 101 migren hastası alındı. Migrentipleri belirlenen hastaların demografik, klinik özellikleri, Vizüel Analog Skala (VAS) ve Migraine Disability Assesment Scale (MIDAS)sonuçları kaydedildi. Demografik ve klinik özelliklerle MIDAS ile tespit edilen özürlülük skoru arasındaki ilişki istatistiksel olarakdeğerlendirildi. Sonuçlar Kruskal Wallis, Fisher kesin test, Spearmankorelasyon ve Mann-Whitney U Testi kullanılarak MIDAS skoru ilekıyaslandı.Bulgular: Çalışmaya alınan hastaların yaş ortalaması 31,8±8,7 idi. Hastalarımızın %75,2si ev hanımı, %59,4ü ilkokul mezunuydu. MIDASskoru ile eğitim düzeyleri korele edildiğinde; okur-yazar olmayan grupta lise mezunlarına göre puanlar istatiksel olarak anlamlı derecedeyüksekti (p=0,033). VAS skoru ortalaması (9,1±0,7) yüksek olanların daha sık acile başvurduğu bulundu (p
