About this study

Official title: Basic Research on Carbon Monoxide's Headache Inducing Characteristics in a Humane Experimental Headache Model

To investigate headache score and accompanying symptoms during and after inhalation of carbon monoxide.

Read the detailed description

To investigate headache score and accompanying symptoms during and after inhalation of carbon monoxide.

With transcranial Doppler imaging, c-scan and laser speckle the investigators will investigate changes in blood flow velocity of the middle cerebral artery (MCA), diameter of the superficial temporal artery (STA), the radial artery and facial skin perfusion.

Being tested
Carbon monoxide, AIR
Medical subject headings
Migraine Disorders

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • Carbon monoxideOther

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Carbon monoxide and AIR in people with Headache, 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 3 inclusion and 12 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 21 Dec 2017. 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. Some participants in this study may receive a placebo. 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 scores, 12 hours (time frame: 12 hours). 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 21 Dec 2017.
