NCT ID NCT07292337
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study tests whether a gentle electrical current applied to specific points on the skin (AcuTENS) can reduce pain and anxiety during a prostate biopsy. About 53 men having their first biopsy will receive either active AcuTENS or a placebo device, on top of standard numbing medication. The goal is to see if this simple, low-risk technique can make the procedure more comfortable.
