Summary

This study surveyed 145 women with migraines who were pregnant between 2019 and 2021. It compared pregnancy and baby health between those who used the Nerivio device for migraine attacks and those who didn't. The goal was to see if using Nerivio during pregnancy is safe for both mother and child.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance

Nerivio (a device that uses mild electrical pulses on the arm to relieve migraines)

What this could lead to

If results show no safety concerns, it may provide reassurance that Nerivio is a safe option for treating migraines during pregnancy.

What could go wrong

This is a small, retrospective survey study, not a controlled trial, so it can't prove cause and effect. Results may be biased by how participants were selected or how they reported their health.
