Simple IV fluids tested as first step for Kids' severe migraines

NCT ID NCT01073787

Summary

This study looked at whether giving children intravenous (IV) fluids alone could help reduce severe migraine pain when they visit the emergency department. Researchers wanted to see if the expectation of getting medication influenced pain relief. The goal was to find a simpler, first-step treatment that might avoid the need for stronger drugs in some children.
