Active clinical trials for "Post-Traumatic Headache"

To detect the Clinical efficacy of pulsed radiofrequency treatment targeting the mid cervical medial branches versus greater occipital nerve for cervicogenic headache

The purpose of this study is to investigate the effects of TMJ directed treatment approach using the Rocabado 6x6 program in patients with cervicogenic headache on the intensity of headache, function of the neck, and quality of life and compare its effectiveness with headache SNAGs which have been proven very effective in treatment of cervicogenic headache.

The aim is to investigate whether opening of large conductance calcium-activated potassium (BKCa) channels induces headache with migraine-like features in people with persistent post-traumatic headache (PTH) attributed to mild traumatic brain injury (mTBI).

this study will be conducted to investigate the effect of lumbar motor control training exercise on headache frequency, duration, intensity and neck functional disability in cervicogenic headache patients

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.

To investigate whether cilostazol (phosphodiesterase 3 inhibitor) induces headache with migraine-like features in people with persistent post-traumatic headache (PTH) attributed to mild traumatic brain injury (mTBI).

The intervention will consist of the nursing staff applying 2 grams of diclofenac 1% gel topically to the posterior cervical region four times daily. The control group will receive petroleum jelly topically to the posterior cervical region four times daily. Patients will receive a pre-intervention and post-intervention survey incorporating the Numeric Assessment Scale and Headache Impact Test-6.

The objective of this study is to develop new digital solutions for patients with prolonged postconcussion symptoms, and investigate its usability, feasibility, and safety. The digital solutions consist of a 1) symptom mapping and clinical decision support system, and 2) a research-based system for home-based biofeedback treatment.

This research study aims to better understand the relationships between neck muscle function, neck joint position sense, and headache pain and disability in people with chronic cervicogenic headache. Cervicogenic headache is headache originating from the neck area. Participants will fill out questionnaires about their headache pain and ability to do daily activities. They will also do tests to measure neck muscle fatigue and neck joint position sense. Researchers will analyze if those with more neck muscle fatigue and poorer joint position sense have worse headache pain and disability. The results may improve understanding of cervical spine factors related to cervicogenic headache. This could help guide more targeted treatment approaches.

This is a United States Department of Defense funded Focused Program study that aims to identify mechanisms and predictors for persistent of post-traumatic headache attributed to mild traumatic brain injury, and identify methods of preventing post-traumatic headache persistence
