Simple injection could ease debilitating headaches while patients wait for cure

NCT ID NCT06374524

Summary

This study is testing if a simple nerve block injection can temporarily relieve the severe, position-related headaches caused by spontaneous intracranial hypotension (a spinal fluid leak). Researchers will give the injection to 34 patients and measure how much their headache pain decreases over 14 days. The goal is to provide a bridge treatment to improve quality of life while patients wait for more permanent procedures to fix the leak.
