Official title
A Randomized Sham-Controlled Study of Home-Delivered Non-Invasive Neurostimulation for Migraine
Brief summary
Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.
There is a need for better preventive and abortive therapies for migraine. Previous research has indicated that non-invasive neurostimulation may have prophylactic effects on migraine and improve symptoms and functional outcomes in migraineurs. One such method is a non-invasive transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS). This double-blind randomized sham-controlled two-parallel-arm study aims to evaluate efficacy and safety of tDCS self-delivered in daily 20-minute applications for 2 months (60 days) by adult migraine patients at home for migraine prevention and migraine symptom management, as compared to sham tDCS application; and to evaluate patients' satisfaction with the procedure.
