Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

Most patients with CPTH present with additional major cognitive, behavioral and somatic problems. Most drugs used currently have a negative influence on cognition. Therefore, treatment strategies addressing both the headache and cognitive disturbances in patients with CPTH are necessary. (CPTH; Chronic Post Traumatic Headache).

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

Headache is the most common symptom after a closed head injury, persisting for more then 2 months in 60% of the patients. CPTH is an important cause of consultations in neurology offices and headache clinics, posing a severe burden and affecting the quality of life of sufferers.
