Abstract

Taped home relaxation training was evaluated in a single-case replication design across three patients suffering from tension headaches. Data from daily headache diaries indicated that headache frequency decreased substantially for two of the patients. For the third patient who reported almost continual headache pain, intensity was reduced by over 50%. When compared with results of our previous research taped home relaxation training appeared as effective as (and therefore, more cost-effective than) live clinic relaxation training.

摘要

对三名紧张性头痛患者采用单病例复制设计对家庭录音放松训练进行了评估。每日头痛日记的数据表明，其中两名患者的头痛频率大幅下降。对于第三名报告几乎持续头痛疼痛的患者，疼痛强度降低了50%以上。与我们之前的研究结果相比，家庭录音放松训练似乎与现场诊所放松训练一样有效（因此，比现场诊所放松训练更具成本效益）。
