In a previous controlled group outcome study, a comparison of temperature biofeedback with progressive relaxation indicated that relaxation training was more effective in reducing migraine headache activity at the end of treatment. However, follow-up data obtained at 1, 2, and 3 months after the completion of treatment showed no difference between the two groups on any dependent measure. In the current study, 18 of 26 subjects who completed treatment in the original investigation collected headache data and completed a headache questionnaire 1 year subsequent to the conclusion of treatment in order to evaluate the long-term effectiveness of the two treatments. The results indicated that gains achieved in the reduction of headaches during both treatments were maintained at a 1-year follow-up. With the exception of medication consumption (for which relaxation training led to better long-term results) the 1-year follow-up data reveal no differential efficacy for temperature biofeedback or progressive relaxation in treating migraine headaches.
在之前的一项对照研究中,对温度生物反馈与渐进性放松进行比较,结果表明,在治疗结束时,放松训练在减轻偏头痛活动方面更有效。然而,在治疗完成后的1个月、2个月和3个月获得的随访数据显示,两组在任何相关测量指标上均无差异。在本研究中,原始调查中完成治疗的26名受试者中有18名收集了头痛数据,并在治疗结束1年后完成了头痛问卷,以评估两种治疗方法的长期疗效。结果表明,两种治疗方法在减轻头痛方面所取得的效果在1年的随访中得以维持。除药物消耗情况(放松训练在这方面带来了更好的长期效果)外,1年随访数据显示,温度生物反馈或渐进性放松在治疗偏头痛方面没有差异疗效。
