Interventional treatments.

Abstract

In migraine, when patients have failed medication management or are unable to be treated with systemic medications, minimally invasive interventions can be options used to provide pain relief. The type of intervention depends on the pain location, associated clinical features, clinical context, medical comorbidities, and response to prior injections. Interventions can vary from bedside peripheral nerve blocks to fluoroscopically guided interventions. Growing evidence is supporting the use of interventions in migraine, and judicious use can improve clinical outcomes.
