Abstract

In order to evaluate autonomic nervous system changes occurring before nocturnal headache attacks, we studied three subjects (one male, two females) suffering from chronic migraine. All three patients underwent a nocturnal polygraphic recording including continuous monitoring of systemic arterial pressure and heart rate. Two subjects showed increases and irregularities of arterial pressure before awakening with headache. These changes began during N–REM sleep and lasted during REM sleep preceding the awakening with headache. Heart rate did not change before the attacks. These findings do not support the hypothesis that autonomic instability during REM sleep represents the precipitating factor of the attacks. On a étudié avec des méthodes polygrafiques trois sujets (1 homme et deux femmes) souffrant d'hémicranie chronique avec des crises nocturnes. Chez deux malades les crises étaient précédées d'augmentation et d'irrégularité de la tension artérielle. Ces modifications commençaient pendant le sommeil N-REM et contineaient pendant le sommeil REM qui précédait le réveil avec hémicranie. La fréquence cardiaque n'a pas subi de modification avant les crises. Les résultats obtenus ne confirment l'hypothèse selon laquelle le facteur causant les crises est l'instabilité anticronique à la fase REM. Sono stati studiati con metodiche poligrafiche 3 soggetti (1 maschio e 2 femmine) affetti da emicrania cronica con attacchi notturni. In 2 di essi gli attacchi erano preceduti da incrementi ed irregolarità della pressione arteriosa. Tali modificazioni iniziavano durante il sonno N-REM e perduravano nel corso del sonno REM che precedeva il risveglio con cefalea. La frequenza cardiaca non si modificava prima dell'attacco. I risultati ottenuti non confermano l'ipotesi che il fattore precipitante gli attacchi emicranici sia l'instabilità anticronica della fase REM.
