The efficiency of pulsed electromagnetic field in refractory migraine headaches: a randomized, single-blinded, placebo-controlled, parallel group

摘要: Background:  The study attempts to investigate the effect of PEMF therapy on Refractory Migraines (RM), both those which were related and not menstrual cycle, in a randomized, single blind, placebo-controlled study. Methods:  Results:  There was significant improvement for active group terms their headache days, durations work-loss hours due compared placebo after 2 weeks. added results assessment indicated days duration headaches, number medications even following 4-8-month period. Headache intensity amount medication used reduced only RM patients that had headaches cycles. Conclusions: (10 Hz, 4-5mT) can be considered as beneficial persistent prophylactic treatment option refractory migraine.
