Headband zaps dialysis pain: home brain stimulation trial seeks relief without pills
NCT ID NCT05311956
Summary
This study is testing whether a small, battery-powered headband that delivers a gentle electrical current can reduce chronic pain in people receiving regular kidney dialysis. The trial will enroll 125 adults with end-stage kidney disease who experience significant pain, aiming to see if this at-home, non-drug therapy can improve their pain levels, mood, and quality of life. The goal is to find a safe alternative to pain medications, which often carry risks for this patient group.
