Filter by:The aim is to investigate whether opening of ATP-sensitive potassium (KATP) channels induces headache with migraine-like features in people with persistent post-traumatic headache (PTH) attributed to mild traumatic brain injury (mTBI).
This is a pilot and feasibility randomized controlled trial to assess the efficacy of chiropractic spinal manipulative therapy in patients with tension-type and cervicogenic headache.
Primary Objective The primary objective of the study is to assess whether transnasal sphenopalatine ganglion block using the device TX360 reduces intensity and severity of the Post-Traumatic Headache in adolescents. Secondary Objectives The study will also evaluate: - Quality of life (QoL) - Intensity of the headache - Physical function - Sleep quality - Role function (measured by PEDMIDAS) - Adverse events
The goal of this study is to examine the effectiveness the Mechanical Diagnosis and Therapy (MDT) approach for the management patients with neck related headache that are referred to a hospital based out-patient physical therapy clinic. Background: Headache conditions are among the most common complaints causing people to seek medical care. An estimated 14 billion dollars are spent annually on treating headaches. Neck related headache is characterized by pain which comes from the cervical spine (neck) and could be referred to the head and/or face. CGH is frequently managed clinically utilizing an MDT approach however to date there is limited research available examining the effectiveness of this intervention type in a population with CGH.
This mixed-methods pilot study aims to evaluate the feasibility, acceptability, and preliminary effectiveness of iCHART (Interactive CBT for Headache And Relaxation Training), an interactive voice response (IVR) based delivery of cognitive behavioral therapy for Veterans with post-traumatic headache. Participants will receive iCHART treatment through the IVR system over a period of 10 weeks, which will include an automated daily assessment of patient-reported outcomes, retrieval of fortnightly tailored feedback from a study therapist, and additional weekly one-way motivational enhancement messaging. Delivery of traditional evidence-based behavioral treatments for headache management through technology-based interventions, such as IVR may ultimately increase much needed access to these treatments and allow patients to receive care at a time that is convenient for them.
This study aims to assess the effect and safety of erenumab compared to placebo for the treatment of acute posttraumatic headache (PTH) in military service members and civilians with mild traumatic brain injury (mTBI).
The aim of this study is to find out the effects of Mulligan SNAGs along with thoracic postural correction techniques on patients with chronic cervicogenic headache. Patients suffering from cervicogenic headache are often associated with muscle imbalance. This study will be significant in determining the effects of SNAGs along with thoracic postural correction techniques to improve pain, level of disability and functional status in patients of cervicogenic headache. It will be Randomized controlled trial study design Data will be collected from Lady reading Hospital Peshawar Purposive sampling, group randomization using lottery method will be used in this study.
This project will explore the effect of deep friction massage and post isometric relaxation techniques in Cervicogenic headache. The population sample will be 20 divided randomly into two groups by Lottery method. Then i will collect data from central hospital, Gujranwala. One group will be treated with a deep friction massage technique thrice a week for 3 weeks. Another group will be treated with a post isometric relaxation technique thrice a week for 3 weeks. Both groups will receive a heating pad and neck isometric as baseline treatment. Baseline measurements are taken by an inclinometer. After a treatment plan, the group will be assessed again and post-treatment measured values will be compared with the pretest values. Subjects will be asked to come for follow-up after 4 weeks. The follow-up will show which technique is more effective in subjects having Cervicogenic headaches. Both the techniques used are non-invasive and having minimum side effects. This project will help Physical Therapy Practitioner to explore which technique is more useful to treat Cervicogenic headaches.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate if theta burst stimulation (TBS) can reduce chronic headaches caused by a traumatic brain injury (TBI). TBS is a safe, drug-free brain stimulation technique that uses magnets to create electricity and stimulate nerve cells in the brain. After repeated TBS sessions, the increased stimulation of nerve cells can alter the way the brain communicates with itself (by creating new neural pathways) which, in turn, can reduce pain symptoms. Participants in this study will complete a baseline assessment followed by four weeks of daily home headache assessment. Participants will then receive four weeks of TBS administered three times per day and three days per week. After TBS is completed, participants will complete an additional four weeks of daily home headache assessment and return for a one-month follow-up assessment. Participation is expected to last three months.
Cervicogenic headache is a secondary form of headache that occurs from the upper cervical spine and atlanto-occipital joint. A CGH is a frequent source of chronic headache and is frequently misdiagnosed .Cervicogenic headache is among the most common problem affecting four times more women as compared to males and is considered by some painful feeling in the head , neck ,temporal area, frontal area and around the eyes areas.
