Talking about OCD care after brain stimulation
Part of Mental health clinical trials.
This study explores what patients with OCD and their family members experience after they’ve had a surgery-based treatment called deep brain stimulation or anterior capsulotomy. Your feedback may help researchers understand what support and outcomes matter most to families and patients.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are a family member of someone with OCD
- The patient has previously had deep brain stimulation
- Or the patient has previously had anterior capsulotomy
- You can share your experiences as part of the study

This trial studies deep brain stimulation (a surgically placed device that sends electrical signals) for people with OCD when medicines and therapy have not worked. The goal is to improve how precisely the treatment targets the brain to reduce OCD symptoms.
This study tests whether implanting a small device deep in the brain—like a pacemaker for OCD—can help people whose severe OCD hasn't gotten better with standard medications and therapy.
This study is testing whether brain signals measured during deep brain stimulation (DBS) can help doctors better treat Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder. It may offer a new way to personalize treatment for people with severe, treatment-resistant OCD.
This study tests a treatment called deep brain stimulation (DBS) for people with severe OCD that hasn't improved with standard therapies. DBS uses a device to send small electrical pulses to specific parts of the brain to help control symptoms.
This trial studies a form of brain stimulation to help reduce severe obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD) symptoms. It may be an option if your OCD has not improved despite several standard treatments and therapy.
This trial tests whether deep brain stimulation (a surgical implant that sends electrical pulses to part of your brain) can help people with severe obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD) that has not improved with standard treatments.
