About this study

Official title: Comparison of Short- and Medium- Term Efficacy of Patent Foramen Ovale Closure and Medication in the Treatment of Migraine

The goal of this observational study is to retrospectively observe the effect of PFO closure and medication on migraine. The main questions it aims to answer are:

  • Whether PFO closure is more effective in the treatment of migraine than traditional medical treatment
  • What factors affect the effectiveness of migraine treatment ?

Participants will undergo contrast transthoracic echocardiography to diagnose PFO and evaluate right-to-left shunt. They will be treated with medication and PFO closure respectively according to guidelines. HIT-6 and a questionnaire about migraine were obtained at the baseline and repeated at the 6-month and 12-month follow-up visits.

Researchers will compare closure group and drug group to see efficacy of two groups in treating migraine.

Read the detailed description

Migraine patients with PFO who were admitted to our hospital from January 2018 to August 2021 were enrolled.They will be treated with medication and PFO closure respectively according to guidelines. Headache impact test (HIT-6) and a questionnaire about migraine were obtained at the baseline and repeated at the 6th and 12th month follow-up visits.

  1. HIT-6 was used to assess migraine severity.
  2. Questionnaire included questions regarding average duration of migraine, migraine frequency, relief of migraine after treatment, family history and medication use.
  3. △HIT-6 is the difference between baseline and follow-up in HIT-6 and is used to assess migraine relief. The days of migraine attacks per month (MAD) were calculated by the product of the frequency of headache attacks and average duration of each attack. Therefore, the days of migraine remission per month (MRD)= MAD at the 6th or 12th month follow-up- MAD at baseline. In comparison with baseline, 50% decrease in the number of total attacks was considered responder.
  4. Four parameters were selected to evaluate the treatment effect: HIT-6, △HIT-6, MRD, and response rate.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • Percutaneous PFO closureProcedure or surgery

What is being measured

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

  1. Headache impact test (HIT-6)

    HIT-6 is a self-report assessment tool that covers six dimensions (pain, social functioning, role functioning, vitality, cognitive functioning, and psychological distress) and widely used in headache impact surveys. Scores range from 36-78, < 49 indicating no effect, 50~55 some effect, 56~60 a relatively large effect, and > 60 severe effect. The higher HIT-6, the more severe the impact of headache on patients.

    Measured: After recruiting, HIT-6 will be assessed and reported up to 12 weeks.

  2. The days of migraine remission (MRD)

    The days of migraine attacks per month (MAD) were calculated by the product of the frequency of headache attacks and average duration of each attack. Therefore, the days of migraine remission per month (MRD)= MAD at the 6th or 12th month follow-up- MAD at baseline

    Measured: After recruiting, MRD will be assessed and reported up to 12 weeks.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Migraine and Patent Foramen Ovale, run by Haiyan Wang at 1 site in China.

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 9 inclusion and 4 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 9 Jan 2024. 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 China. 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. 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?

Headache impact test (HIT-6) (time frame: After recruiting, HIT-6 will be assessed and reported up to 12 weeks.). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
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 9 Jan 2024.
