Filter by:This study is a single-center, randomized, double-blind controlled study. Patients will be randomly assigned to two groups by envelope drawing. The subjects will be divided into two groups: the acute intervention group and the preventive intervention group. In each group, the subjects will be randomly divided into the experimental group and the control group by means of envelope extraction. Children and adolescents (7-20 years old) with migraine who met the inclusion criteria will be enrolled as subjects in the experimental group, and the changes in headache scores before and after the intervention will be compared. The intervention method is as follows: ictal intervention, in which subjects will be evaluated for headache improvement after a short intervention during an acute exacerbation. By wearing a vagus stimulator, the stimulating electrode will be located in the concha region rich in vagus nerve fiber endings, and the appropriate stimulation intensity will be adjusted for stimulation. Therefore, this study will verify the effect of nVNS on the acute attack and preventive treatment of primary headache in children and adolescents. Based on the electrocardiogram and electromyography indicators during the intervention process of nVNS, an objective evaluation system for the improvement of headache by nVNS is established, and the role of stimulation parameters on the effect is further explored to realize the optimization of parameters.
Headache is one of the most common reasons for patients to access healthcare. Greater occipital nerve (GON) block with local anesthetic and steroid has been described for the management of primary headache refractory to conventional treatment. Two ultrasound (US)-guided techniques for greater occipital nerve (GON) block have been described for the management of refractory headache syndromes: a proximal technique performed at the level of the second cervical vertebra and a distal technique performed at the level of the superior nuchal line. Our airm is to compare the accuracy, efficacy and safety of these two techniques in patients with refractory headaches.
MigraineBoxTM is a simple, contoured cooling bath for the head and neck. Effectiveness of MigraineBoxTM will be studied in primary headaches in the emergency department. The user simply reclines his/her head and neck into this device that has contours that support the head and neck. Luke warm water is filled into the MigraineBoxTM before use and then a frozen insert is placed inside. This will gradually cool the water surrounding the patient's head and theoretically provide headache relief.
