Migraine is a common neurological condition that can be disabling, particularly if chronic.
Greater occipital nerve (GON) block has been utilized for decades for the treatment of
migraine in the absence of a single randomized, placebo-controlled trial documenting its
effectiveness.
Hypothesis: Greater occipital nerve block reduces the frequency of days with moderate or
severe headache in patients with episodic or chronic migraine.

Ultrasound Guided Transversus Abdominis Plane (TAP) vs. Trigger Point Injection (TPI) for Abdominal Wall Pain
Completed

Phase 2
2012-01-01
Patients with chronic abdominal pain- with a component of abdominal wall pain- are often
treated with trigger point injections. This study will help to determine if a block within
the transversus abdominis plane (TAP) will provide superior analgesic benefit to a trigger
point injection as therapy for these patients.
