Post-dural puncture headache is a common complication, following neuraxial techniques. The obstetric population is particularly prone to PDPH. Therefore, treatment of PDPH is a key issue in obstetric anesthesia. Conservative treatment for PDPH includes adequate hydration, systemic analgesia with paracetamol and non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs and increased caffeine intake, as well as bed rest. If these measures are unsuccessful, the gold standard for the treatment of PDPH is the epidural blood patch which is an invasive technique. The use of nerve blocks for treating headache symptoms are well known techniques that have been previously used for managing some specific types of chronic headache such as cervicogenic headache, cluster headache, migraine, and occipital neuralgia and there are some recently published studies reporting that these blocks may be beneficial in treating PDPH and the available evidence although showing improvements in the visual analogue (VAS) scores and a reduced number of patients requiring an epidural blood patch, but it is still poor. Less invasive techniques such as SPG block and GONB are attractive therapeutic options which may eliminate the need for EBP in obstetric patients suffering from PDPH. Up to the best of our knowledge this is the first randomized trial to investigate the analgesic efficacy of adding SPG block either alone or in combination with GONB to PDPH treatment.
The aim of the study was to assess and compare the relationship between jaw function, neck disability, sleep quality, fatigue, and headache in patients with myofascial Temporomandibular Disorder (TMD) with Sleep Bruxism (SB) and without (non-SB).
Study volunteers are asked to use the Allay Lamp routinely during the 6-week study period. A web based survey is provided when the Lamp is purchased for study volunteers to complete. A daily usage paper diary is sent with the lamp so that volunteers can keep track of the frequency and duration of lamp usage and any noticeable benefits. At the end of six weeks a second survey is sent to study volunteers to capture their perceptions of potential lamp benefits with respect to headache frequency and their experience of migraine specific symptoms.
Cervicogenic headache is a secondary form of headache that occurs from the upper cervical spine and atlanto-occipital joint. A CGH is a frequent source of chronic headache and is frequently misdiagnosed .Cervicogenic headache is among the most common problem affecting four times more women as compared to males and is considered by some painful feeling in the head , neck ,temporal area, frontal area and around the eyes areas.
Headaches are more common in the month of Ramadan in patients who already suffer from migraine. The object of the present study is investigate the frequency in the Ramadan month .
This study will compare the VerTouch device to the conventional palpation technique for performing diagnostic and therapeutic neuraxial procedures.
The purpose of this trial is to study the efficacy and efficiency of sphenopalatine ganglion block for management of post dural puncture headache in obstetric patients
The purpose of this study is to find out the effect of cervical sustained natural apophyseal glide half rotation technique in patients with cervicogenic headache. Not many researches have focused specifically on the cervical sustained natural apophyseal glide half rotation technique and this study intends to see its effect in the cervicogenic headache patients.
Service members and/or recently separated veterans with post traumatic stress symptoms and mild traumatic brain injury may participate in 8 sessions including 2 sessions including interviews and questionnaires as well as 6 sessions of art therapy. In the art therapy, participants will be provided with a blank paper mache mask template and invited to alter the mask however they wish using a variety of art materials. The therapist will use the art-making process and culminating product to aid in self-reflection, reframe negative thoughts and feelings, and work through traumatic content. Prior to the session start participants will get set up with a mobile qEEG (worn like a hat and backpack). The qEEG will measure brain activity in a non-invasive way throughout the art therapy session to improve understanding of brain activity during the art therapy process.
