Active clinical trials for "Headache"

The purpose of this study is to compare a 4-week, moderately intensive, lab and home-based aerobic exercise program versus exercise plus cognitive training. Participants will include individuals who experience lingering symptoms of a head injury or concussion.

The present study aims to assess the quality of life of patients suffering from tension-type headache (TTH) treated for 4 weeks with different manual therapy-based techniques. The study design involved a factorial, randomized, double-blind, controlled study

Evaluation of the comparative bioavailability between two oral formulations containing ibuprofen 200 mg and pseudoephedrine 30 mg after a single dose in healthy subjects under fasting conditions.

The purpose of this study is to demonstrate the relative bioavailability of Nadolol (1 x 80 mg) tablets under fasting conditions.

The purpose of this study is to determine if the addition of preventive medication, behavior migraine management or the combination of preventive medication and behavior migraine management improves the outcome of optimal acute therapy for frequent migraines.

The hypothesis of this study is that injection of botulinum toxin A into the muscles around the head (frontal, temporal, posterior neck, occipital) can reduce the intensity and frequency of migraine headaches by 50%.

We are testing the hypothesis that subjects in the treatment group will experience fewer fasting induced headaches as compared to those in the placebo group.In our clinical experience, we estimate that approximately 25% of our headache population experiences fasting-induced migraine or hunger-induced migraine. With a given migraine incidence of 28 million in the United States alone, we estimate that approximately 7 million will experience hunger as a migraine trigger. If an individual has a known migraine trigger, then there are a variety of ways to modify care in order to address that trigger. The simplest is to avoid that trigger or preemptively treat that trigger. Frovatriptan has good evidence for daily use for a short time to help prevent menstrually related migraines. A short course of treatment can often avoid the initiation of the migraine and improve quality of life. Knowing that a longer acting triptan, such as frovatriptan, has demonstrated capability at suppressing headache through a known trigger, suggests the need to study this with fasting induced migraines, as well.

It is a common belief that patients with MOH rarely respond of preventative medications whilst overusing acute medications. However, no randomized trial has been done previously to prove such statement. Based on some clinical experiences, our hypothesis are patients with probably MOH may benefit from use of preventive medications better than treatment with abrupt withdrawal or no specific treatment.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the clinical results in cervical spine range of motion, endurance deep cervical muscles, headache impact and physical activity enjoyment by a training protocol with the new device for cervical treatment (CDAT) versus conventional training protocol (CT) in subjects with cervicogenic headache.

This trial is a prospective, randomized, feasibility trial with the primary aim of comparing how well oral rapidly dissolving olanzapine controls primary headache pain when compared to the current treatment strategies used in emergency departments which often require intravenous or intramuscular medications.
