Active clinical trials for "Headache"

Tension Type Headache (TTH) is a frecuent type of headache disorder (about 1 person in 5 worldwide). Individuals with TTH typically present pericraneal tenderness and an increased cervical muscle tone. The most common treatment in primary care consists mainly on analgesic medication. However, different techniques of manual therapy have been shown to be effective in the treatment of these patients. Diacutaneous fibrolysis shows clinical benefits in relieving symptoms of tension type headache, but there is no scientific evidence that analyzes this effects. The hypothesis of this study was that adding treatment with diacutaneous fibrolysis to the usual conservative treatment has beneficial effects on different variables of the headache. The aim of the study was to assess the effect of diacutaneous fibrolisis on intensity, frequency, duration of headache and cervical function in patients with tension type headache. A randomized controlled clinical trial has been designed to evaluate the effectiveness of diacutaneous fibrolysis technique compared to usual general practicioner care in patientes with tension type headache. The study protocol has been approved by the Clinical Research Ethics Committee from the Aragon Community and all patients provided written consent. Eighty-two people with clinical diagnosis of TTH were randomized into a intervention group or a control group. Intervention group received three sessions of Diacutaneous Fibrolysis, while control group was advised to maintain their usual pharmacologic treatment. Pain intensity (VAS), frecuency, location, cervical range of motion, head forward position and pressure pain thresholds (PPTs) were measured at baseline, postintervention, and 1 month follow-up after treatment. The Spanish version of the HIT-6 Questionnaire was used to measure disability/function at baseline and follow-up.

This study will evaluate the efficacy of abobotulinumtoxina on Veterans with post-traumatic headache

The purpose of this study is to determine whether patients in the emergency department with migraine headache who are administered an intravenous fluid bolus will report greater improvement in pain scores than control patients.

In our study, we will compare a new route of nebulization for effectiveness between dexmedetomidine, neostigmine/atropine and saline placebo for females complained of postdural puncture headache (PDPH) after cesarean section.

Study Purpose: This study will explore the feasibility of administering Holographic Memory Resolution® (HMR) to adults who are experiencing chronic pain for 6 months or more.

This study evaluates the efficacy of eptinezumab to prevent migraine and headache in patients with the combined diagnosis of migraine and medication overuse headache

Transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) was suggested to provide beneficial effects in chronic migraine (CM), a condition often associated with medication overuse (MO) for which no long-term therapy is available.

Headache is an important health problem. It is the commonest type of all signs of illness in the people worldwide. Cervicogenic Headache is commonest musculoskeletal condition in physiotherapy practice. This study's main objective was to evaluate effectiveness of Dry Needle with exercise in decreasing pain and improving function in patients with Cervicogenic Headache.

The aim of the study is to evaluate the effect of self-administered intranasal cooling for the symptomatic relief of migraine headache and associated symptoms in an "at home setting". 10-20 patients - who have been diagnosed according to the International Classification of Headache disorders (2nd Edition) criteria for Episodic migraine, with or without aura - will be included in the study. During a screening period of one month participants will record their migraine symptoms, any treatment and treatment effects. After a minimum om two migraine attacks the participants receive individual instructions on how to use the The RhinoChill® system. During the following treatment period of the study, participants are instructed to treat their upcoming three migraine attacks with 10 minutes of nasal cavity cooling according to the instructions and thereby register symptoms and treatment effects after 10 minutes, 1 hour, 2 hours, 24 hours and 48 hours.

General purpose: It was investigate the effect of IASTM and phonophoresis on Tension Type headache. Specific Purpose: It was investigate the effect of IASTM on headache frequency, PPT, pain intensity, and functional disability on trigger points of tension type headache. It was investigate the effect of Lidocaine phonophoresis on headache frequency, PPT, pain intensity and functional disability on trigger points of tension type headache. It was investigate the effect of IASTM and Lidocaine phonophoresis on headache frequency, PPT, pain intensity, and functional disability on trigger points of tension type headache.
