NCT ID NCT06770998

First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026

Summary

This study tests a new EEG neurofeedback system called Prism for treating PTSD in 250 US veterans and civilians. Participants do 15 sessions of Prism training over 8 weeks, plus two booster sessions. The goal is to see if Prism reduces PTSD symptoms more than a sham (fake) training. Researchers measure symptom changes using a standard PTSD interview.
