Efficacy of Ultrasound-Guided Multifidus Cervicis Plan Block Vs Greater Occipital Nerve Block for Cervicogenic Headache — UBLOC  

Cervicogenic Headache Clinical Trial

Official title:
The Efficacy of Ultrasound -Guided Multifidus Cervicis Plan Block Versus Greater Occipital Nerve Block for Cervicogenic Headache

Clinical Trial Summary

Background: Cervicogenic headache (CH) described as a chronic hemi-cranial pain resulted from a disorder of the cervical spine and its anatomic structures innervated by the C1, C2, and C3 cervical spinal nerves. Traditionally noninvasive and invasive techniques were used for treatment. Greater occipital nerve block is the most frequent peripheral nerve block invasive technique used for the management of cervicogenic headache Objectives: The study was done to compare the efficacy of two different techniques: multifidus cervicus plan block and greater occipital nerve block in treatment of refractory cervicogenic headache using ultrasound guided.

Patients and Methods: sixty patients with cervicogenic headache were recruited and diagnosed according to ICHD-ш Beta version. Divided into two group, one for greater occipital nerve block and the other for multifidus cervicis plane block with ultrasound guided.

Clinical Trial Description

This study was done to compare the efficacy of two different techniques: multifidus cervicus plane block and greater occipital nerve block in treatment of cervicogenic headache using ultrasound guided.

This prospective study that was approved by Institutional Review Board (IRB), Mansoura Faculty of Medicine, Mansoura University, Cairo Egypt (Code Number: R/19.04.483) and all participants gave written informed consent. The procedures followed were in accordance with our protocol.

This study included patients with cervicogenic headache disorders that diagnosed according to International Classification of Headache Disorder version III (ICHD-III beta version) criteria (18)

Full clinical neurological examination was done for all patients. Blood samples for routine laboratory investigations (Complete blood count, creatinine, liver function tests, PT, APTT) were taken from all patients, electrocardiography (ECG) were done for all patients. Pain intensity was evaluated via visual analog scale (VAS) scores (0 -10). Pain intensity evaluation will be done at initial presentation then after 2 and 4 weeks, using the VAS scale for affected side of cervicogenic headache. Saturation of pulse oxygen (SpO2), all Procedures performed using ultrasound system with a 7 - 13 MHz multi-frequency transducer (LOGIQ P5; GE Healthcare). ;
