Filter by:Cervicogenic headache (CGH) manifests as unilateral neck pain referred from the neck's soft tissues or bony structures. The aim of this study will be to compare the effectiveness of Shi style cervical mobilization versus Sustained Natural Apophyseal Glides on pain, strength and functional disability in patients with Cervicogenic Headache.
The study of the ability to predict pain in a migraine attack, through premonitory symptoms and through an ambulatory monitoring device through real-time recording of hemodynamic variables, is one of the strategic lines of research of the unit. of Headaches at the Hospital de La Princesa since 2013 together with the Complutense and Polytechnic University of Madrid. Their results have been reflected in various publications (Pagán J, et al. Sensors 2015; Gago-Veiga AB, et al. J Pain Res 2018) and have promoted the creation of several invention patents.
A prospective, bicentric, randomized, double-blind controlled study including parturients scheduled for elective caesarean delivery under spinal anaesthesia and randomized and assigned to one of the two groups: Group O ondansetron : receiving Intravenous (IV) ondansetron 0.10 mg/ kg diluted in 5 ml normal saline, 5 min before spinal anesthesia Group C control : receiving IV normal saline 5 ml (control group) 5 min before spinal anesthesia OBJECTIVE : To evaluate the efficacy of ondansetron in preventing post-dural puncture headache after spinal anaesthesia for caesarean section.
The current study aim to determine the effect of myofascial release technique and ocular muscle exercise to release eye strain headache in myopic students. This study aim to reduce eye strain headache to improve quality of life and student academic performance. This study will enable the students to to work on digital device for a long period of time without any discomfort.
Primary headache is one of the most common neurological diseases in modern society, which seriously affects the patient's quality of life. Although the use of painkillers can alleviate primary headache symptoms, it may also cause drug dependence. Therefore, alternative therapies that do not rely on drugs have attracted increasing attention in recent years. Among them, acupuncture has been partially recognized by the public as an effective treatment for primary headaches. However, there is currently no scientific evidence that acupuncture is effective for primary headaches. The purpose of this project is to verify the effect of acupuncture in treating primary headaches. This study has three sub-projects: Subproject 2 explores the impact of acupuncture on headache severity and quality of life in patients with primary headaches. We evaluate the quality of life before and after acupuncture treatment through professional questionnaires, including the Numerical rating scale (NRS), headache diary, depression, anxiety and stress scale (DASS-21), health quality of life measurement questionnaire, Migraine Disability Assessment Scale and SF-36 Taiwan version. Finally, these data will be combined with the pulseway analysis from the results of sub-project 1 to provide a comprehensive way to evaluate the treatment effect.
The aim of our study is to determine the effect of ELDOA in relieving pain, improving ROM and functional disability in patients with cervicogenic headache. This study will add to the growing body of knowledge that if this technique yields comparable outcomes, it would be the alternative therapy. Moreover, it would add to the society as no literature is available on the effect of ELDOA technique in the management of Cervicogenic headache.
The goal of this observational study is to assess the pain sensitivity in tension-type headache patients. The main question it aims to answer is: - Are signs of central sensitization present in tension-type headache? Participants will be asked to fill out baseline questionnaires and they will be assessed during 1 test moment (static and dynamic quantitative sensory testing). Researchers will compare tension-type headache patients with healthy controls to see if signs of central sensitization are only present in the tension-type headache group.
Lumbar puncture (LP), often known as a "spinal tap," is a standard medical technique pioneered in the late 1900s by Heinrich Quincke. It involves the retrieval and analysis of cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) from the spinal cord, serving as the benchmark for diagnosing conditions like subarachnoid hemorrhage, meningitis, and specific neurological conditions. Pregabalin, an anticonvulsant medicine that blocks calcium entry, is used to treat a variety of diseases. It has been used to relieve pain in a variety of patient groups, including those with chronic pain, epilepsy, and anxiety disorders
Migraine is the third most prevalent disease and the leading reason of years lived with disability in the most productive years of the life. Migraine associated disability can be alleviated by acute and preventive treatment. The migraine landscape has changed recently, with the approval of novel acute treatments, including oral Calcitonin gene-related peptide antagonists, the gepants (Rimegepant, Ubrogepant, Zavegepant) and 5-HT-1F antagonists, the Ditans (Lasmiditan). These have joined Triptans as acute "migraine-specific" drugs. The TRIDIGEP study will be an open-label, multiple attack, prospective cohort study. This study aims to describe 1) the effectiveness of the acute treatments of migraine attacks in routine clinical practice, 2) the tolerability of the drugs, and 3) to explore potential response and tolerability predictors. The endpoints recommended by the International Headache Society will be employed, including: 1) Pain freedom; 2) Absence of the most bothersome symptom; 3) Sustained pain freedom; 4) Total freedom from migraine; 5) Headache relief; 6) Duration of attacks; 7) Time lost due to an attack; 8) Need of rescue medication. The study endpoints will be assessed at 2, 8 and 24 hours after the acute drug use. Data will be collected by the patients themselves, with a validated data collection instrument within a RedCap questionnaire, using QR codes.
This clinical trial will try to determine if the supplements magnesium and riboflavin will reduce the pain and duration of headaches in persons diagnosed with a concussion. The participant will be randomized to either active magnesium and riboflavin capsules or placebo (inert) capsules. The capsules will be taken once a day for 14 days. The participant will also complete a short diary form for the 14 days and will have 3 follow up visits either by telephone or in person.
