Below are recruiting transcutaneous vagal nerve stimulation (tvns) clinical trials, each written for real people, not researchers. We’re tracking 6 recruiting studies, each written for real people, not researchers, below.
Recruiting studies
- NCT07131696Recruiting
Vagus nerve stimulation for brain bleeding complication
This trial tests if a nerve stimulation device can prevent a dangerous blood vessel spasm after a brain aneurysm bleed. It may help reduce damage and improve recovery.
Birmingham, AlabamaAges 18–65 - NCT05090267Recruiting
Gut-brain treatments for alcohol use and memory changes
This study tests whether gut-brain–targeted treatments (including probiotics and stimulation of a nerve) can improve thinking and inflammation-related health in people who use alcohol. You may be able to join if you have memory/thinking problems and meet specific medical limits, including HIV immune system levels.
Coral Gables, FloridaAges 35–70 - NCT07251816Recruiting
How the brain creates motivation
This study looks at how your brain creates motivation by using brain scans and sometimes gentle stimulation. It is for healthy people who want to help researchers understand normal brain function.
BronAges 18–40 - NCT01627301Recruiting
Study of stress-related body overactivity in people with PTSD
This study looks at how the body’s stress system works in veterans with PTSD compared with veterans without PTSD. You may be asked about blood pressure, lifestyle, and health conditions to see whether the study measures differences that could help future treatment.
Decatur, GeorgiaAges 18–65 - NCT02560805RecruitingPhase 2
Study drugs that affect stress nerves and blood pressure in PTSD
This Phase 2 study looks at how stress-related nerve activity and a hormone called angiotensin II may be involved in PTSD, and how specific blood-pressure-related medicines affect the body. You may be eligible if you are a PTSD patient (or a matched control without PTSD) and meet safety criteria.
Decatur, GeorgiaAges 18–65 - NCT07405021Recruiting
Vagus nerve stimulation for diabetic nerve pain
This trial tests whether using a non-invasive device to stimulate the vagus nerve can reduce nerve pain and improve function in people with diabetic neuropathy. It may be a good option if you have burning or electric-shock-like foot pain despite standard diabetes care.

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for transcutaneous vagal nerve stimulation (tvns)?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 6 recruiting transcutaneous vagal nerve stimulation (tvns) studies from the U.S. registry, each rewritten for real people, not researchers, so you can see what it’s testing and who it’s for.
- How do I know if I qualify for a transcutaneous vagal nerve stimulation (tvns) trial?
- Each study lists its eligibility criteria — rules about age, diagnosis, and prior treatments. On every Clin2 trial page we explain these in words written for real people and offer a short, optional pre-screen for a fit read. The study team makes the final decision.
- Does it cost anything to join a transcutaneous vagal nerve stimulation (tvns) trial?
- Using Clin2 is always free. Many trials cover the cost of the study treatment and related visits; some reimburse travel. The study team explains exactly what’s covered before you decide.
