Zap to the ear may help brain injury patients hear in crowds

NCT ID NCT07176936

Summary

This study is testing whether gentle electrical stimulation of a neck nerve through the ear can help people with traumatic brain injury hear speech better in noisy environments. Researchers will compare two different stimulation approaches in 55 participants, including both people with brain injuries and those without. The goal is to understand how the brain processes sound and whether this noninvasive treatment can improve hearing in challenging situations.
