Brain zaps tested to calm dementia hallucinations and ease family strain

NCT ID NCT06785948

Summary

This small pilot study is testing whether a gentle, non-invasive brain stimulation technique called tDCS can reduce distressing symptoms like hallucinations, delusions, and agitation in people with Lewy Body Dementia. It also aims to see if this helps reduce the stress and burden on their family caregivers. Researchers will compare real stimulation to a placebo (sham) treatment in 30 participants to look for changes in symptoms and caregiver strain.
