Clinical Trial Summary

Altered gamma activity has been observed in several neurological and psychiatric disorders, including a reduction in gamma synchronization in patients with disorders of consciousness. Modulation of gamma oscillations with rhythmic stimulation has been used as a possible therapeutic tool. Hence, we try to use acoustic and electric stimulation at gamma frequency to restore brain oscillation and thereby to improve conscious awareness in patients with disorders of consciousness.


Clinical Trial Description

We propose a matched-pair parallel study in patients with disorders of consciousness to investigate whether combined acoustic and trigeminal nerve stimulation can modulate brain oscillations, as measured by electroencephalography (EEG), and whether the brain activity changes are coupled with improvements in consciousness. ;
