Filter by:This study is a Post-Marketing Surveillance study in Korea to evaluate the safety and efficacy of botulinum toxin Type A to treat Chronic Migraine in clinical practice.
The broad aim of the study is to implement and evaluate the efficacy of Graded Exposure Treatment (GET Living) to target elevated pain-related fears in children with chronic pain. Pain-related fear is an important psychological factor associated with poor outcomes in children suffering with chronic pain. To examine the efficacy of GET Living in addressing pain-related fears the investigators propose to use a sequential replicated randomized single-case experimental phase design with multiple measures. The specific aims are to 1) evaluate the effectiveness and acceptability of individually tailored GET Living for children with high pain-related fear and functional disability and 2) define anatomical and resting state connectivity patterns in the brains of children and adolescents with complex chronic pain prior to and after participation in GET Living.
This study has been designed in order to know the effect of 12 weeks of aerobic exercise training for migraine prevention. We hypothesized that the exercise training could reduce the number of days with migraine and the number of attacks per month in the treated group.
The study will look at a non-invasive treatment for people suffering with chronic and episodic headaches. Study subjects will be randomized to an active treatment or an in-active treatment for 2 weeks. After the 2 weeks all subjects will continue to treat with an active treatment for an additional 2 weeks.
The purpose of this study is to determine whether electroacupuncture is effective in the treatment of chronic tension-type headache, measured by Headache Impact Test, Visual Analogue Scale and biomarkers.
Due to recent wars in Afghanistan and Iraq, the number of Veteran suffering from Mild traumatic brain(MTBI) injury and PTSD increases rapidly. Headache is one of the most debilitating clinical symptoms in Veteran with MTBI and the cause of it is still not entirely clear. Recently, the use of non-invasive brain stimulation such as repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation(rTMS) has yielded favorable clinical outcome in a few intractable chronic central pain conditions including headaches. This study aims to 1) assess the effect of rTMS in relieving headache and improving neurophysiological functions; and 2)explore the neuronal mechanisms associated with MTBI related headache and the analgesic effect of rTMS with function magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI).
This study is a retrospective chart review in patients diagnosed with headache or migraine to evaluate treatment patterns and diagnosis.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of Theramine® as a preventative for migraine headaches.
Headache is the most common complaint to neurologists. In the 80´s and 90's few papers, with limited number of patients, have proposed the association between nasal septum contact and headache. The International Classification of Headaches Disorders proposed specific diagnostic criteria for this entity. With the major use of CT scans, the contact between nasal mucosa and septum is daily observed in many patients without complaint of headache. The purpose of this study is to determine if there is any correlation between nasal and septum mucosa contact and the prevalence of headache. The investigators hypothesized that no correlation will be found using CT scans in a large series of patients.
The purpose of this study is to determine if a special coating, applied to the surface of glasses can reduce the frequency and severity of migraine headaches in children and adolescents. This study is being conducted by researchers at Primary Children's Medical Center, The John Moran Eye Center, and the University of Utah Department of Electrical Engineering. The investigators have determined that a specific frequency of light is particularly bothersome to migraine patients. The coating they've developed is designed to block this frequency of light. Very few treatments are approved for the treatment of childhood migraine. The investigators hope that these glasses will provide a safe way to improve headaches in children.
