Filter by:Migraines are very common and affect over 35 million Americans a year. Migraines can be painful and affect daily life. The cause of migraine is multifactorial and not completely understood. Treatment usually includes different classes of medications, life style changes, physical therapy, acupuncture, nerve stimulators and avoiding common triggers (like bright lights, certain foods, or loud sounds). For some patients, Botox injected into the muscles of the forehead and neck can significantly reduce pain. Unfortunately, this does not provide long-term relief as the effect of Botox lasts for 3 months. Since year 2000 surgery to treat a selected population of migraine patients has been gaining popularity and showing promising results. The surgery reduces the pressure on the peripheral nerves that are believed to cause migraine headaches by resecting the surrounding tissue (bone, fascia, muscle, and arteries). This surgery provides a more long-term and permanent relief. The purpose of this study is to follow the effectiveness and outcomes of migraine surgery.
Open-label randomized controlled trial to study the efficacy of continuous daily use of ethinylestradiol/levonorgestrel (30/150 µg/day) compared with vitamin E (400 IU/day) in the treatment of women with menstrually-related and perimenopausal migraine.
The purpose of the study is the measure the levels of lasmiditan in the body of children aged 6 to 17 with migraine. The study also will also examine the safety and tolerability of lasmiditan in children aged 6 to 17 with migraine. The study will last about 6 weeks, and includes 4 visits.
This is a randomized double blind trial comparing an intranasal sphenopalatine block with 2% lidocaine to intravenous (0.15 mg/kg, max 10mg) prochlorperazine in patients greater than 10 years of age presenting to a pediatric emergency department with an acute frontal migraine headache.
This project aims to develop the protocol and obtain feasibility and acceptability information for Telehealth Behavioral MIgraine Management in a single-arm pre-post pilot study. The investigator and study team aim to recruit 20 people with migraine from the Montefiore Headache Center in the Bronx NY. Participants will receive the 12-week protocol including a mobile app headache diary, an online patient manual with interactive vignettes, 4 50-minute telehealth sessions, and 3 15-minute check-ins.
Vestibular migraine was recently addressed by the International Headache Society (IHS) as separate from other types of migraine. Vestibular migraine is one of the most common causes of vertigo attacks, affecting 1-5% of people. People with vestibular migraine have lower quality of life compared to others and some are completely debilitated by their symptoms. Symptoms include vertigo, nausea, head motion-induced dizziness, unsteadiness, balance problems, and lightheadedness. Most reports of vestibular migraine management have focused on treatment with medications; however, recommendations also include some form of lifestyle modification. Lifestyle modifications like avoidance of certain foods, improving sleep, exercising, etc. have all been reported to help migraine in general, but there are no reports on the effects of lifestyle modification on vestibular migraine as defined by IHS. It is important to investigate the effects of lifestyle modifications on vestibular migraine because the underlying causes of vestibular migraine are unclear. So, it is also unclear if lifestyle modifications are effective for vestibular migraine. Many investigations of lifestyle modification on migraine include a single modification like diet, weight loss, or sleep. Our modifications include food triggers, restful sleep, exercise, and eating regularity. We hypothesize comprehensive lifestyle modifications will improve symptoms of vestibular migraine. We will measure how people feel dizziness and headache activity is affecting their lives before and after our intervention. This project is important because vestibular migraine is reported to be the one of the most common causes of vertigo and interventions useful for other migraine types may not be effective for vestibular migraine. If we demonstrate improvement with comprehensive lifestyle modifications, we will continue the line of investigation with randomized, controlled studies. This work furthers our goal of helping the many people impacted by vestibular migraine.
The purpose of this study is to investigate the effects of erenumab on central sensitization and brain networks connectivity of migraine patients
This study will evaluate the efficacy and safety of cannabis for the treatment of chronic migraine headaches. Study subjects will be randomized to one of three groups: lower dose CBD, higher dose CBD or placebo.
Study 20170703 is a phase 4, randomized, double-blind, parallel-group, placebo-controlled study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of erenumab against placebo in participants with chronic migraine (CM) who have a history of at least 1 preventive treatment failure and are diagnosed with medication overuse headache (MOH).
