简要总结
Migraine headache has a 1-year period prevalence in the US of 11.7% and accounts for approximately 1.2 million migraine visits to US emergency departments per year . There are numerous studies that discuss treatment for migraine and other benign headaches within the emergency department (ED), however, there are very few that discuss specifically the use of intravenous fluids (IVF) for headache treatment. Many of these studies look at various options for treating migraine and other benign headaches: treatment options include dopamine antagonists, opioids, non-steroid anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs), triptans, anti-epileptics and ergot derivatives. Comparisons have been done between many of these treatment options with dopamine antagonists appearing to be the most effective, compared to other treatments The dopamine antagonist with the most evidence and availability for benign headaches is prochlorperazine. Given that IVF administration is a common part of treatment regimen for benign headache patients in the emergency department and given the lack of randomized trials in adults, the investigators aim to study the use of IVF on pain reduction in headache patients in the adult ED. There has been one randomized trial in pediatrics that shows IVF may help in patients with migraines, whereas the adult literature has no randomized control trials and a review of data shows that fluids do not help relieve pain in migraine headache patients. This study will include both adult and pediatric patients presenting to the Emergency Department with complaint of benign headache.
详细描述
This will be a single center, prospective, single blinded randomized controlled trial on a convenience sample of patients presenting to the adult or pediatric ED with a chief complaint of headache. Subjects will only be enrolled when a physician or research assistant who is familiar with the study protocol is available to enroll patients. Written, informed consent will be obtained from each patient. Consent will include a discussion of the risks and benefits. In addition to parental informed consent in the pediatric population, age appropriate verbal assent will be obtained from pediatric subjects. After 30 minutes, the treating provider will be permitted to administer a "rescue medication" of their choice for further treatment. If there is an untoward event that requires the patient to know which IVF dose was administered, patient will unblinded and will not continue in the study.

结局指标
主要结局
Reduction in Pain Scores at 60 Minutes
时间窗: 60 minutes
The primary outcome measure will be the mean reduction in pain scores at 60 min. In other words the pain score at time zero minus the pain score at time 60 minutes. Pain scores are measured 0-100, with 0 being no pain and 100 being maximal pain, on a visual analog scale score. Higher numbers indicate more pain reduction.
次要结局
- Reduction in Pain Score at 30 Minutes(30 minutes)
- Admissions(1 day)
- Reduction in Nausea Score at 60 Minutes(60 minutes)
- Vomiting(60 minutes)
- Rescue Medication(60 minutes)
- Percentage of Patients With Persistent Headache(24-48 hours after discharge.)
