Summary

This study tests if a small, handheld device that gently stimulates a nerve in the ear (tVNS) is safe and practical for people recovering from a brain bleed (subarachnoid haemorrhage). The goal is to see if it can reduce common complications like poor blood flow and inflammation. Thirty participants will receive either the real device or a sham (dummy) device twice daily for 5 days, and their recovery will be followed for 6 weeks.
