The trial will determine the impact of an information- and education-focused interventions on the anxiety levels, and patients' experiences as well as satisfaction of patients aged 10-14 and their caregivers during the MR examination.
This study will assess the combined effectiveness of repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) and telehealth based therapy in helping manage mild traumatic brain injury (mTBI) related headaches. The investigators hypothesize that active rTMS combined with telehealth therapy will provide marked reduction in mTBI related headaches and symptoms in comparison to their placebo counterparts.
Currently, it is unknown if dry needling when performed to the trigeminal innervation field improves neck pain and or headache for patients with cervicogenic headaches. The aim of this study is to determine if dry needling of the trigeminal innervation field improves pain, pain-pressure thresholds, and neck mobility in patients with cervicogenic headaches, with or without migraine.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate Neostigmine and Glycopyrrolate to treat post-dural puncture headache (PDPH) to reduce the proportion of postpartum women with a PDPH requiring epidural blood patch (EBP) who developed a PDPH after accidental dural puncture.
The observational study aims to investigate the effects of a multimodal treatment program for headache patients in a day clinic service. The setting provides one week of treatment including a combination of medical consultation, physiotherapy, psychological therapy, occupational therapy, progressive muscle relaxation and disease specific education. Outcome measures are the disease-specific impact on daily activities, general quality of life, psychological impact and headache frequency. Moreover, the study sought to identify parameters that best predict efficacy of the intervention. Therefore, standardized questionnaires are established in three points in time, to evaluate the pre- and post-treatment status.
Nowadays, headache has been considered as one of the top global disabling medical conditions.1 Migraine is an important type of headache, and one of the chronic multifaceted neuro-inflammatory disorders.2 It is characterized by recurrent throbbing headache pain that typically affects one side of the head, and is often accompanied by nausea and disturbed vision. Migraine headache accounts for 1.4% of all neurological and mental disorders.2 It was reported that the estimated lifetime prevalence of migraine ranged 12%-18%.3 Chronic migraine is defined by the International Classification of Headache Disorders - ICHD-3 as having headaches for ≥ 15 days per month, for ≥ 3 months , which ≥ 8 days/month are linked to migraine. Chronic migraine affects around 1%-4% of the population and chronic tension-type headache about 2.2%.4 Approximately 25%-50% of those affected also have medication overuse headache, which has a population prevalence of 1%.5 Chronic headache is a severely disabling long-term condition, with higher symptom ,frequency and severity than episodic headache.6
An experimental study will be conducted to evaluate the effect of dry needling on the M. Obliquus capitis inferior on rotational mobility and headache realted outcome measures in patients with cervicogenic headache.
This study aims to assess the effect and safety of erenumab compared to placebo for the treatment of acute posttraumatic headache (PTH) in military service members and civilians with mild traumatic brain injury (mTBI).
The coronavirus SARS-CoV-2 causing COVID-19 was pandemic since 2020. Vaccination is one of the most important measure to control the outbreak. The countries of the world started the vaccination since December, 2020. Taiwan started since March, 21st, 2021. Currently, Taiwanese people receive COVID-19 vaccination by either AZ or Moderna; Pfizer/BNT vaccine may import in the near future. The side effects post vaccination including injection site pain, fatigue, headache, myalgia, chills, arthralgia, fever, and so on. Incidence of side effects more frequent in young people than elders; more frequent in the first dose than second dose in AZ vaccine; more frequent in the second dose in Moderna or Pfizer/BNT vaccine. Taiwan V-watch is a system monitored by CDC for people proactive notification of side effects post COVID-19 vaccination. But it doesn't include the objective cardiovascular parameters, for example, heart rate, arrhythmia, blood pressure, central body temperature (ear temperature) and blood oxygen saturation level. This study aims to monitor the physiologic and psychologic effects, and side effects before and after COVID-19 vaccination in patients at high cardiovascular risk, including hypertension, hyperlipidemia, and type 2 diabetes, and arrhythmia or coronary artery disease. The investigators arrange two weeks of continuous home BP/HR monitoring (7 days pre- and post-vaccination) for evaluation of physiologic effects post vaccination. Due to fever noted in some people post-vaccination, the investigators also measure ear temperature, pulse oximetry, and environmental temperature and humidity, for the reference of BP monitoring. In conclusion, this study may provide important information of cardiovascular response and psychosocial effects after SARS-CoV-2 vaccination for proactive prevention of cardiovascular complications.
