Zap your ear to ease your mind? new OCD study tests brain hack

NCT ID NCT05580614

Summary

This study is testing if a gentle, non-invasive stimulation of a nerve in the ear (called tVNS) can make standard OCD therapy more effective. It will involve about 56 adults with moderate to severe OCD who will receive therapy sessions. Researchers will measure changes in OCD symptoms and brain activity to see if the combination works better than therapy alone.
