Medical subject headings
Cluster Headache

What is being measured

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

  1. Character of usability and acceptance of the ATI Neurostimulation System, as evaluated by the following:

    1. Implantation of ATI Neurostimulator within the pterygopalatine fossa
    2. Explant and lead-revision rates and reasons

    Measured: Through study completion

  2. Characterization of patient response to therapy, as evaluated by the following:

    1. Patient acceptance of the therapy
    2. Responder Analysis, where a responder is any patient who achieves Effective Therapy in at least 50% of evaluable attacks, a 50% attack frequency attack decrease relative to Baseline, or both
    3. Disability and Quality of Life as characterized by the HIT-6 and SF-36v2 compared to Baseline
    4. Subject Overall Evaluation of Therapy
    5. Change in use of acute medications compared to Baseline
    6. Change in preventive medication use and work status compared to Baseline

    Measured: Through study completion
