Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • A Reduction in Either Pain Frequency or Severity Associated With Occipital Neuralgia.

    Improvement of pain due to occipital neuralgia as measured on the Visual Analog Scale (VAS) for pain at Days 7 and 30 as compared to baseline (Day 0). 0= no pain, 10= worst pain imaginable. Higher scores equal worse outcome.

    Baseline to Day 7, Baseline to Day 30

Secondary Outcomes (1)

  • Duration of Treatment

    Day 30, Day 56

Study Arms (1)

Treatment

EXPERIMENTAL

Study treatment with Cryo-Touch III device at Day 0.
