Abortive Effect of an Ear Insufflator on Migraine

Completed · Not applicable · Has a placebo group

Conditions studied: Migraine

In brief

Evaluate the effectiveness of air insufflation in aborting (stopping) an acute episode of migraine and compare it with a placebo effect of using the same procedure but without active insufflation. The insufflation will be used when the subject is experiencing an acute episode of migraine to determine its ability to reduce, if not to completely eliminate the migraine symptoms. Subjects receiving the placebo treatment will be offered the active treatment during the subsequent episode of migraine.
