Summary
This study tests a device that gently stimulates a nerve in the forehead (eTNS) to see if it reduces ADHD symptoms in 60 autistic children. Kids wear a small sticky patch on their forehead each night for 8-12 weeks. The goal is to learn if this safe, non-drug approach can improve attention, hyperactivity, and social behaviors.
