Zapping anxiety away? ear device trial aims to calm surgery patients

NCT ID NCT07495163

Summary

This study is testing whether a gentle, non-invasive electrical stimulation device placed on the ear can help reduce anxiety in patients before and after major abdominal surgery. Researchers will compare the real device to a fake one in 282 patients to see if it lowers anxiety, improves sleep, reduces pain, and helps patients recover faster. The goal is to find a safe, drug-free option to ease the common stress of surgery.
