NCT ID NCT07452939

First seen Mar 13, 2026 · Last updated May 07, 2026 · Updated 5 times

Summary

This study tests a gentle, noninvasive brain stimulation method called iTBS to see if it can improve memory, attention, and planning in older adults who had delirium while in the ICU. About 40 people aged 50 to 75 who are three months past their ICU stay will receive either real or fake stimulation over two weeks. The goal is to check if the treatment is safe and feasible, and to measure any changes in thinking skills.
