Zapping the ear to fight chemo sickness
NCT ID NCT05143554
Summary
This study tested whether a small, gentle electrical stimulator placed on the outer ear could help reduce nausea and vomiting in children and young adults receiving chemotherapy. Participants tried both a real and a fake (sham) device during different rounds of their treatment to see if the stimulation made a difference. The goal was to find a new, drug-free way to ease one of the most difficult side effects of cancer treatment.
