New telehealth approach targets brain fog in veterans with seizure disorder
NCT ID NCT07316543
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study aims to create and test a telehealth program to help veterans with psychogenic nonepileptic seizures (PNES) improve their thinking skills and daily functioning. About 47 veterans with PNES who report cognitive difficulties will give feedback to design a cognitive treatment workbook. The program will then be tested in a small pilot study to see if it helps with everyday tasks like memory and problem-solving.
