About this trial

This is an interventional diagnostic trial for Migraine Headache

Eligibility Criteria

18 Years - undefined (Adult, Older Adult)All SexesDoes not accept healthy volunteers

Inclusion Criteria:

  • On a Monthly basis, at least four, and not more than a total of fourteen Headache Days (Pain Score between one and ten) of which between four and nine are Migraine Headache Days (Pain Score between five and ten). NOTE: For clarification, the occurrence of Headaches is counted taking into account, and making no adjustments for, the medications that the subjects are taking;
  • A history of some responsiveness (incomplete) to at least one and a maximum of two prophylactic pharmaceutical therapies (utilized concurrently);
  • The investigator must have confidence in the patient's ability to reliably complete and return the Daily Headache Diary.
  • Subject must be at least 18 years of age.

Exclusion Criteria:

  • Individuals who are pregnant, who have a history of cardiovascular disease, who work night shifts or who have vestibular migraine, menstrual migraine, posttraumatic migraine, a history of unstable mood disorder or unstable anxiety, moderate or greater hearing loss or a history of traumatic brain injury will be excluded from the Study.

Arms of the Study

Arm 1

Arm Type

Experimental

Arm Label

TNM device, active treatment

Arm Description

This is an active-only assessment of the experimental neuromodulation device

Outcomes

Primary Outcome Measures

Number of migraine headache days
Daily Headache Diary will be used by subject. A headache day is defined as a twenty-four hour period which the subject has a headache.
Severity of each and of all headaches
Daily Headache Diary will be used by subject. Subject will assign the level of pain based on an eleven-point pain measurement scale from zero (no pain) to ten (most intense pain).

Secondary Outcome Measures

Total Monthly Headache Pain Score
The monthly measure would be the cumulative maximal headache pain scores for all headache days (days on which the subject's head pain level is one or higher on the pain measurement scale) during the month.
