Magnetic pulses to the brain may help ICU survivors think clearly again

NCT ID NCT07452939

Summary

This study is testing whether a gentle, noninvasive form of brain stimulation can help improve memory, attention, and thinking skills in older adults who experience cognitive problems after a serious illness in the ICU. Researchers will use a magnetic coil placed on the scalp to deliver brief pulses to a specific brain area involved in thinking. The goal of this small pilot study is to see if the treatment is safe and feasible, and to gather early data on whether it might help with recovery.
