Introduction: Neurological outpatient care is a reality of medical graduation, and aims at the diagnosis, guidance and resolubility therapy in Neurology, being part of the daily life of these patients with the most diverse diagnoses. Methodology: This study is characterized as observational, cross-sectional, exploratory of the series of patients seen at the Neurology outpatient clinic of the Centro de Especialidades Médicas do Cesupa (Cemec) of Centro Universitário do Estado do Pará (Cesupa). Data were collected from the medical records of outpatient consultations, and only those patients who had consultations in the period from 2012 to 2015 were included in the study. Objective: To carry out an exploratory survey of the sample of patients treated at the Neurology outpatient clinic of the Centro de Especialidades Médicas do Cesupa (CEMEC) of Centro Universitário do Estado do Pará (Cesupa). Results: The results show that there was a higher prevalence of patients who underwent few visits at the Neurology Outpatient Clinic. In addition, the most prevalent complaint was the symptom of headache, but the prevalence of patients with improvement of the neurological picture was also important. Conclusion: Finally, we have seen that the use of Artificial Intelligence methods can help reveal the prevalence of associations between symptoms and signs recorded in databases in need of data.

Introduction: Migraine is one of the most prevalent causes of pain in Brazil and globally, being incapacitating when severe. They are primary headaches and are classified for their etiology in migraine with aura and without aura. Treatment is performed according to the specificity of migraine. Thus, it is imperative that there be a knowledge of the medical conduct on this subject, so that it cannot only diagnose and treat, but also adequately guide patients with migraine in outpatient services. Objective: To evaluate the preventive management of patients with migraine at the CEMEC-CESUPA Outpatient Neurology in the period 2014-2018. Methodology: Retrospective study of 961 patient charts from the CEMEC-CESUPA Neurology Outpatient Clinic. 52 charts followed the exclusion and inclusion criteria established for this research. The sample characterization information was compiled in databases prepared in Microsoft Office Excel® 2016 software; adopting a significance level α < 0.05. Results: There was a predominance of females (88.46%), with a prevalence of patients with migraine without aura (55.8%) compared to aura (44.2%). The most evident age at onset of migraine was between 19 and 30 years (39.1%). Among the patients analyzed, 88.5% reported severe pain and only 5.8% moderate pain, and there were no subjects who reported poor pain or absence of pain. Migraine attacks usually occur in 50% of cases 3 to 14 times a month, followed by 15 to 30 times monthly (44.7%); its average duration is 4 to 72 hours in 64.1% of patients. The prodrome with the highest prevalence in the research were the scotomas (78.9%). Its most frequent triggering factors were stress (60.5%), food (32.6%) and sleep (32.6%); among the foods, coffee and chocolate (35.7% and 28.6%, respectively) were the most prevalent. In the morbid antecedents, systemic arterial hypertension and psychiatric diseases were the most mentioned in this study (41.9% and 38.7%, respectively). Among the most frequently mentioned life habits during non-pharmacological treatment, the therapeutic activity prevailed (55%). Of the patients evaluated, 40% of evasion was observed after the first return visit. There was little filling of the headache diary (34%). The prevalence of the main drugs used in prophylactic therapy were tricyclic derivatives (77%), topiramato (23%), flunarizine (9.5%) and propranolol (11.5%). It was noted that 66.6% of the patients were using abusive analgesics before treatment. Conclusion: The main benefits of this study for the CEMEC-CESUPA outpatient clinic of Neurology are the contribution of the scientific analysis to the elaboration of adherence strategies for the patients treated in this clinic and the elaboration of a proposal for a headache diary.

Headache, as a disease, often generates uncertainties in the professionals involved in the consultations, due to the numerous forms of presentation regarding the clinical condition of patients. In this context, the importance of knowing homogeneous characteristics of the local population served, can provide the most agile and effective therapeutic conduct, contributing to the well-being of patients. The aim of this study was to present a clinical-epidemiological profile of patients seen at the Neurology outpatient clinic of the CESUPA Medical Specialties Center (CEMEC), in the period from the first semester of 2017 to the first semester of 2019, diagnosed with different types of primary headaches, through the analysis of medical records. The study design prioritized the collection and analysis of data, established in the research protocol, in the referred location, referring to patients diagnosed with primary headaches: Migraine, Tensional and Trigeminal Autonomic. These results were tabulated and graphs were generated for a better perception of the general picture, the relative risk (odds ratio) was calculated to establish the chances of the sample population to develop the pathology associated with the most prevalent comorbidities. The results were based on 81 medical records of patients with diagnoses among primary headaches, which demonstrated that the majority presented tension headache, followed by migraine, in a larger population of women, between 19 and 60 years old, the main associated comorbidity was hypertension. systemic arterial (0.4: 1) followed by dyslipidemia / Diabetes Mellitus (0.25: 1), the most widely used prophylaxis was ibuprofen, however, most of the sample is untreated. The results of this work were presented in accordance with others already published, with regard to the epidemiological profile of the sample population, the understanding of the association between the types of primary headache and the associated comorbidities proved to be important for the understanding of the causal nexus of the most common etiologies associated with headache. Further research associating the correct diagnosis of headache with the treatment employed and associated diseases may provide better patient management and management.
