- NCT07729449Recruiting
Predicting headache after cesarean using ultrasound and oxygen monitoring
This trial measures how well two monitoring tools (optic nerve ultrasound and brain oxygen levels) can predict headache after a planned cesarean. It may help find better ways to prevent post-dural puncture headache.
Ordu, AltinorduAges 18–40 - NCT05116930RecruitingPhase 2
Medicine for headache after a labor spinal needle
This Phase 2 study tests neostigmine plus glycopyrrolate to treat a specific type of severe headache that happens after a dural puncture during labor. If you have a new headache starting within 72 hours of delivery and no other cause, this treatment may help relieve your pain.
Rochester, MinnesotaAges 18–54 - NCT05804448Recruiting
Altitude effect on spinal headache after C-section
This study looks at whether living at higher or lower altitudes changes the risk of a specific headache after a C-section done with spinal anesthesia. The goal is to understand who is more likely to get this headache so care can be better tailored.
Jumla, KarnaliAges 18 years+ - NCT06253754Recruiting
Study of headache after spinal tap
This trial looks at why some people get a headache after a spinal tap and how treatment might help. It may be an option if you are between 20 and 40 and have this kind of headache.
Umeå, Västerbotten CountyAges 20–40 - NCT06711731Recruiting
Registry for spinal CSF leak and post-dural headache
This registry collects information from people with suspected spinal CSF leak (a condition where fluid leaks from around your spine) or headaches after a spinal procedure. By joining, you help researchers learn more about these conditions and improve future care.
Freiburg im BreisgauAges Any age - NCT06824025RecruitingEarly Phase 1
Comparing two drugs for headache after spinal anesthesia in C-section
This trial tests if a combination of neostigmine and atropine works better than lidocaine for treating severe headaches that can happen after spinal anesthesia during a planned C-section. It aims to find a more effective way to relieve this type of headache.
MinyaAges 18–35 - NCT07354464RecruitingPhase 3
Treating spinal headache: nose spray vs. blood patch
This trial compares two treatments for the severe headache that can occur after a spinal tap or epidural. One treatment is a numbing medicine sprayed into the nose (sphenopalatine block), the other is a blood patch (injecting your own blood into your back). The goal is to see which works better and faster.
Clermont-FerrandAges 18 years+ - NCT07515456Recruiting
Comparing Three Medications for Spinal Headaches
This study tests three different medications—theophylline, sumatriptan, and gabapentin—to see which works best for headaches that occur after a spinal procedure. You would receive one of these treatments and be monitored to see how well it relieves your pain.
Tanta, El-GharbiaAges 21–50 - NCT06800859Enrolling by invitation
Predicting headache after spinal puncture
This study looks at patients having spinal anesthesia to find patterns that might predict a post-dural puncture headache. It aims to create a risk model that can help prevent or manage this complication.
