This study doesn't follow the usual testing phases โ it may be an observational study or a different type of research.
This study is testing a noninvasive vagus nerve stimulation (nVNS) device โ a small tool that gently stimulates a nerve in your ear โ to see if it can help relieve headache pain when you have a migraine, cluster headache, or tension headache. The treatment is designed for children and teenagers between ages 7 and 20. Researchers will measure how much your headache pain improves after using the device and will track your heart rhythm to understand how the treatment works.
Many young people suffer from frequent, painful headaches, and current treatments don't work well for everyone. This trial is exploring whether this medication offers a new, non-invasive way to quickly reduce pain during acute headache attacks without the need for pills or more invasive procedures.

When you experience a headache, you will contact the research team and come in within 20 minutes of your headache starting. You will wear the nerve stimulation device on your ear for 30 minutes while researchers monitor your heart rhythm with an ECG and measure your neck muscles with electromyography. Your headache pain will be assessed immediately after treatment, and again at 2 hours, 8โ12 hours, 24 hours, and 36โ48 hours later to see how much improvement occurs. The entire process takes about an hour per headache episode.
