Video abstract of review paper "Tackling chronic migraine: current perspectives" published in the open access Journal of Pain Research by Francisco Javier Carod-Artal. Abstract: In the last decade, several diagnostic criteria and definitions have been proposed for chronic migraine (CM). The third edition of the International Classification of Headache Disorders--3 beta, published in 2013, has revised CM diagnostic criteria. CM is defined as "headache occurring on 15 or more days per month for more than 3 months, which has the features of migraine headache on at least 8 days per month." Patients who meet the criteria for CM and for medication-overuse headache should be given both diagnoses.
