What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Headache intensity, mean velocity of blood flow in the middle cerebral artery (VmeanMCA), superfical temporal artery diameter, PetCO2, adverse events and vital signs were recorded at T-10, T0 and then every 10 min until 120 min after start of infusion.

    Measured: Every 10 min.

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. All subjects were asked to complete a headache diary every hour until 10 h after the discharge. The diary included headache characteristics and accompanying symptoms according to the International Headache Society (IHS 2004)

    Measured: 10 hours after discharge

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Natriuretic peptides in people with Headache and Migraine, run by Danish Headache Center at 1 site in Denmark.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 4 inclusion and 10 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 29 Jul 2015. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in Denmark. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Headache intensity, mean velocity of blood flow in the middle cerebral artery (VmeanMCA), superfical temporal artery diameter, PetCO2, adverse events and vital signs were recorded at T-10, T0 and then every 10 min until 120 min after start of infusion. (time frame: Every 10 min.). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 29 Jul 2015.
