Could a gentle brain zapping device help heal severe head trauma?

NCT ID NCT07373366

First seen Jan 29, 2026 · Last updated May 13, 2026 · Updated 20 times

Summary

This study tests a noninvasive device called REAC that uses gentle electrical signals to help rebalance brain activity in people with a severe type of traumatic brain injury called diffuse axonal injury (DAI). Researchers will compare real REAC treatment to a sham (fake) treatment in 60 patients, using EEG brain wave measurements and disability scales to see if the therapy aids recovery. The goal is to find a safe, drug-free way to improve neurological outcomes after serious head trauma.
