Brain zaps tested as new hope for teen ADHD

NCT ID NCT05102864

Summary

This small study is testing whether a two-week course of non-invasive brain stimulation can improve attention and working memory in teenagers with ADHD. Researchers are using a technique that gently stimulates the brain's prefrontal cortex, an area linked to focus. The goal is to see if this 'brain-first' approach can safely help manage ADHD symptoms by targeting the underlying brain activity.
