NCT ID NCT03015558
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study tested a non-invasive brain stimulation method called tDCS to see if it can reduce chronic nerve pain. Researchers compared real stimulation to a placebo in 24 healthy volunteers and patients with long-term nerve pain. The goal was to measure changes in pain levels and brain activity. If effective, this approach could offer a drug-free option for managing persistent pain.
