Background: Migraine is a headache disorder highly prevalent in children and adolescents. It significantly affects academic performance and quality of life. A conservative approach to pharmacological prophylaxis for pediatric patients persists in clinical practice, as potential risks must be carefully weighed against the benefits for each individual patient. Non-pharmacological interventions, …
This proposal will involve a pilot study to evaluate the feasibility, acceptability, and outcomes of a lifestyle behavior protocol in managing chronic migraine. Additionally, the proposal will investigate biomolecules that are uniquely involved in chronic migraine patients who respond to the protocol. Successful completion of this proposal will inform the …
Cervicogenic headache (CGH) is a secondary headache that originates from dysfunction in the upper cervical spine, particularly the atlanto-occipital and C1-C3 segments, and is perceived in one or more regions of the head and/or face. The underlying mechanism involves convergence of cervical and trigeminal afferents in the trigeminocervical nucleus. Structures …
The goal of this clinical trial is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of transcutaneous auricular vagus nerve stimulation (taVNS) in reducing postoperative headache among adults undergoing stent-assisted coiling for unruptured intracranial aneurysms (UIAs). The study will include male and female participants aged 18 to 80 years who are scheduled …
Subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) is a devastating neurological disorder associated with significant mortality and morbidity rates, arising not just from the hemorrhage itself but also because of the catastrophic multisystem sequelae that can accompany the condition. Rupture of an intracranial aneurysm accounts for up to 85% of instances of SAH, occurring …
The study aims to test interactions between drug and placebo-responses in acute migraine treatment and to assess variation in adverse events according to treatment information provided. Using a clinical within-subjects, balanced placebo design, patients with chronic migraine will receive four treatment conditions in a randomized order.
The primary aim is to test the combined effectiveness of OMT and targeted head exercise (THE) to achieve a significant decrease in headache measures of frequency, intensity, and duration in a Treatment group when compared to a Control group whose members receive only standard medical care. A parallel, 2-arm, longitudinal, …
Headache is a very frequent symptom among the world population, the adult population with an active headache disorder are 46% for headache in general, 11% for migraine, 42% for tension-type headache and 3% for chronic daily headache. There are different therapeutic approaches for the improvement of headache. Transcutaneous stimulation of …
Post-dural puncture headache (PDPH) is a common and debilitating complication of spinal anesthesia in pregnant patients undergoing cesarean sections, with an incidence ranging from 0.5% to 2% (1). The International Headache Society (IHS) defines PDPH as a headache occurring within 4 days of a lumbar puncture, caused by cerebrospinal fluid …
This study uses a factorial research design to evaluate a nurse delivered mind body intervention using different doses of 3 treatment components to determine the optimized treatment for headache day reduction.
