What the study statuses mean

This study's is highlighted.

Recruitment status, easiest to join first

Recruiting now This study
This trial is taking on new participants right now.
Not yet recruiting
Registered, but not yet taking participants.
By invitation only
Not open to general applications. Only people the study team invites can take part.
Paused
Paused for now. It may or may not start again.
Ongoing
Running, but no longer taking on new participants.
Completed
The trial has finished. Results may not be published yet.
Stopped early
Stopped early, before it reached the end. That can be for many reasons, including safety.
Cancelled
Cancelled before anyone took part.

Expanded access (not trials)

Expanded access
Not a trial. This treatment can be requested outside a study, case by case, for people who qualify.
Expanded access (paused)
Not a trial. The treatment can normally be requested outside a study, but is unavailable right now.
Expanded access (ended)
Not a trial. The treatment could once be requested outside a study, but no longer can.
Approved
The treatment has been approved, so it is available normally rather than through this programme.

When the status isn't known

Details not published
The full record has not been published yet, so there is little to show here.
Status unknown
This status has not been confirmed recently, so it may be out of date.

Summary

Researchers are testing whether combining transcranial random noise stimulation (tRNS) with neurofeedback can improve attention in adults who have sustained a brain injury from stroke, trauma, or lack of oxygen. Participants receive sessions that pair 10 minutes of tRNS with 20 minutes of neurofeedback training. The study measures changes in attention using computer tasks and brain activity recordings.

What this could mean

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

Active substance
transcranial random noise stimulation combined with neurofeedback
What this could lead to
If it works, this could offer a non-invasive way to help people regain attention and independence after brain injury.
What could go wrong
The trial is small and early, so results may not hold up in larger groups. Brain stimulation can cause mild scalp discomfort or headaches, and attention gains may not last.

Study facts

What this study's own registry entry says, in plain language.

Phase

Not a phased trial

Phase numbers describe drug development. The registry uses this when they do not apply, as it does for trials of devices, procedures or behaviour changes, and for observational studies.

Participants

About 30 people

The number the study aims to enrol. It can still change while the study runs.

Copied word for word from the study's registry entry, so the wording is the study team's rather than ours.

Inclusion Criteria: * ≥18 years old * ABI resulting from TBI, stroke, hypoxia and other etiologies * attentional deficits that are among the objectives of neurorehabilitation as established by the clinical team (scores falling in the 90% percentiles on the Conner's Continuous Performance - CCPT, on the Digit and Spatial Span Tasks and Color Trail test) * good cognitive condition (ie., scores of ≥23 in the Mini Mental State Examination * MMSE or ≥75 in the Galveston Orientation \& Amnesia Test - GOAT) Exclusion Criteria: * previous report of psychiatric and/or neurologic disorders * contraindication to computerized activities * blindness or severe visual impairments
