Filter by: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 will evaluate the effectiveness of Treximet when taken for post traumatic headache by measuring any change in the number of headache days or any change in a subject's ability to think following treatment with study medication. Eligible subjects will complete 3 visits. Following Visit 1, subjects will treat with their usual medication and document headache symptoms and therapy in a Headache Diary. After 30 days, subjects will return for Visit 2 and be randomized (like the flip of a coin) to receive Treximet or matching placebo to treat at the same time each day. Treximet will be provided to treat any headache that occurs. Subjects will complete a daily Diary. After 30 days, subjects will exit the study at Visit 3.
