Brain pacemaker tested for most severe OCD cases
NCT ID NCT02773082
Summary
This study is testing a surgical treatment called deep brain stimulation (DBS) for adults with severe obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD) that hasn't improved with standard medications and therapy. A small device, similar to a pacemaker, is implanted to send electrical signals to specific brain areas. The goal is to reduce OCD symptoms and improve quality of life for people who have very few other treatment options.
