What is being measured

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

  1. Mean change of pain score (measured on a visual analog scale=VAS) at 1 hour compared to baseline

    visual analog scale (VAS) for pain score assessment: 11 point scale 0-no pain, 10-Intolerable pain

    Measured: 1 hour

Secondary outcomes (6)
  1. Mean change of pain score (measured by VAS) at 2 hours compared to baseline (if rescue therapy was not used).

    visual analog scale (VAS) for pain score assessment: 11 point scale 0-no pain, 10-Intolerable painbaseline (if rescue therapy was not used).

    Measured: 2 hours

  2. Mean change of pain score (measured by VAS) at 24 hours compared to baseline (if rescue therapy was not used).

    Mean change of pain score (measured by VAS) at 24 hours compared to baseline (if rescue therapy was not used).

    Measured: 24 hours

  3. Proportion of patients not having required rescue medication within 24 hours

    Proportion of patients not having required rescue medication within 24 hours

    Measured: 24 hours

  4. Proportion of patients not having required rescue medication at 2 hours compared to baseline.

    Proportion of patients not having required rescue medication at 2 hours

    Measured: 2 hours

  5. Proportion of patients pain free at 1,2 and 24 hours from baseline (if rescue therapy was not used).

    Proportion of patients pain free at 1,2 and 24 hours from baseline (if rescue therapy was not used).

    Measured: 1, 2, 24 hours

  6. Proportion of "responders" ("responder" is defined as decrease of at least 50% in VAS pain score from baseline) at 1,2 and 24 hours from baseline (if rescue therapy was not used).

    visual analog scale (VAS) for pain score assessment: 11 point scale 0-no pain, 10-Intolerable pain

    Measured: 1, 2, 24 hours

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Relievion device- Treatment stimulation in people with Migraine, run by Neurolief Ltd. at 1 site in Israel.

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 20 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 13 Mar 2019. 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 Israel. 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?

Mean change of pain score (measured on a visual analog scale=VAS) at 1 hour compared to baseline (time frame: 1 hour). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT03398668, which also lists 1 linked publication.

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 13 Mar 2019; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 8 Nov 2026.
