Summary

This study tests whether a brain-training technique called neurofeedback can help reduce anxiety in women who have had repeated pregnancy losses. Participants use a headband that monitors brain activity and plays a calming sound when the brain is in a relaxed state. The trial compares real neurofeedback to a sham version to see if it truly helps. Sixty-two women will take part, and their anxiety levels will be checked after treatment and three months later.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance: fNIRS-BCI closed-loop neurofeedback device
What this could lead to: If it works, this could offer a non-drug way to reduce anxiety in women with recurrent pregnancy loss, potentially improving well-being and pregnancy outcomes.
What could go wrong: This is a small early-stage trial (62 participants) testing a device, not a drug. The sham control may still produce placebo effects, and results may not generalize to all women or lead to a proven treatment.
