简要总结
To determine the effects, sequel of dry needling in migraine by resolving MTrPs in sternocleidomastoid muscle.
To determine the possession of dry needling technique to mitigate the frequency, intensity and duration of headache.
To determine the effectiveness of dry needling in the disability hindrance in migraine patients.
详细描述
This is a randomized control study of 60 volunteers with migraine induced by myofacial triggers in sternocleidomastoid muscle. The migraine will be diagnosed by the neurologist and for the evaluation of trigger points and muscle thickness ultrasound will be done. After the diagnostic procedure and complete history evaluation from the selected population 30 subjects will be subjected to dry needling group and 30 others will be kept in the placebo group. All the participants will receive six sessions at the myofascial trigger point area there should be the gap of at least 48 hours between two sessions. As for the assessment details, such as the frequency, intensity and duration of the headaches; the consumption of drugs; the thickness of SCM muscles; the pain pressure threshold and the cervical range motions will be recorded before, immediately following the response, and at the 1-month follow-up

结局指标
主要结局
Sternocleidomastoid muscle Ultrasonography
时间窗: 12th Week
An ultrasonograph scan uses high-frequency sound waves to make an image of a person's internal body structures
Visual Analogue Scale
时间窗: 12th Week
A Visual Analogue Scale is a measurement instrument that tries to measure a characteristic or attitude that is believed to range across a continuum of values and cannot easily be directly measured. It is often used in epidemiologic and clinical research to measure the intensity or frequency of various symptoms.
Bubble Inclinometer
时间窗: 12th Week
Bubble Inclinometer is a simple to use device for measuring range of motion in patients. The inclinometer can be used to measure range of motion in the neck, the hip, the elbow, the knee, the shoulder, the spine, the ankle, the wrist, and the Metacarpophalangeal joint.
