Risk factors of Transient Global Amnesia

  • Migraine: Several case series and a meta-analysis have identified a higher risk of transient global amnesia among patients with migraine than among those without migraine.[1]
  • Younger age at the first episode: In a retrospective series involving 1044 patients, younger age at the time of the first episode was associated with future episodes[2].
  • Personal or family history of migraine: The same retrospective series suggested that a personal or family history of migraine presaged future episodes, although these findings have not been affirmed.[2]
  • Cardiovascular risk factors: Cardiovascular risk factors have been overrepresented in some series but are probably commensurate with the typical age range of patients with transient global amnesia.[3]
  • History of migraine in adolescents: Rare reports of transient global amnesia in adolescents have been linked to athletic activity and a history of migraine.[4]
