Protocol summary

Study aim
Evaluation of the effect of RIPC (remote ischemic preconditioning) on migrane headache and Brain metabolites in MRS (magnetic resonance spectroscopy) and qEEG indices of migraine patients a pilot study
Design
This study is a parallel double-blind clinical trial on 30 patients with intervention(RIPC group) and control group (RIPC like group). Sample allocation will be based on the limited randomization approach using block randomization.
Settings and conduct

Randomization (investigator's opinion)
Randomized
Randomization description
In this study, restricted randomization method in the form of block randomization will be used to allocate patients into intervention and control groups. The "R" software will be used for randomization. For this purpose, four blocks with a ratio of 1: 1 will be considered. Sequences are marked in sealed envelopes with the letters A (intervention group) and B (control group). We will consider the size of the blocks randomly with a size of 4 to prevent the latest allocation from being detected. In the randomization process, random allocation sequences are identified by a statistician, and one student collaborators in the project will register participants and allocate them to interventions.
Blinding (investigator's opinion)
Double blinded
Blinding description
In the present study, according to the type of intervention approach used, patients, nurses and physicians will be aware of the new treatment process and there is no way to not inform them and they are not blind. However,data analyzer and who assesses the patients outcomes are blind . Therefore, the present study is designed for double blinds.

Description
Intervention group: Intervention group: The patient undergoes RIPC protocol 6 days a week. sphygmomanometer will be attached to the patient's arm and will be remained under the pressure of 200 mmHg for 5 minutes (ischemic phase) , followed by 5 minutes of rest (reperfusion phase). This cycle will be performed 3 times.
