Clinical Trial: Migraine With Aura Inducing Characteristics and Effects on the Cerebral Arteries and Blood Flow by Hypoxia

Study Status: Completed
Recruit Status: Completed
Study Type: Interventional



Official Title: Study of Migraine With Aura Inducing Characteristics and Effects on the Cerebral Arteries by Hypoxia in a Humane Experimental Migraine Model

Brief Summary:

In this study the investigators will investigate the following hypothesis

  • that hypoxia induce migraine headache and migraine aura
  • the aura phase is associated with a spreading reduction in cerebral blood flow
  • the migraine headache is associated with dilatation of intra- and extracerebral arteries
  • the migraine headache is associated with changes in brain metabolism
  • the pre-ictal stage of a migraine attack with aura is associated with specific patterns in neural activity.
