- Abstract
- Abstract The objective was to measure
the impact of botulinum toxin
type A (BTX-A) treatment on symptoms
and medication utilisation patterns
in patients with chronic tension-
type headache. A retrospective
chart analysis was completed in the
Day Hospital of the Regional
Referral Headache Centre at
Sant'Andrea Hospital in Rome.
Clinical charts were randomly
selected for 100 patients treated
from February 2002 to January
2003. Patients were treated with 100
U of BTX-A every three months for
one year by using the Fixed Doses
Fixed Sites procedure. Treatment
outcome ranged from complete resolution
of headache symptoms to a
worsening of symptoms resulting in
discontinuation. Headache medication
use before and after treatment
was analysed. After BTX-A treatment,
85% of patients experienced
at least some degree of pain relief and reduced their use of analgesics.
The reduced percentages of patients
using a variety of headache medications
after BTX-A treatment results
from a reduction in their headache
symptoms. (literal)
