Study brain signals tied to fear and anxiety in RNS patients
Part of Mental health clinical trials.
This study records electrical brain activity to understand how fear and anxiety work in people who already have an RNS (responsive neurostimulation) device placed. It may help researchers develop better ways to monitor and treat anxiety-related symptoms in the future.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- Be 18 years old or older
- You have already had an RNS device implanted (with electrodes placed in the brain)
- You are willing to sign the consent form and participate
- You can read and write English fluently
- You are not pregnant

This study looks at how the brain processes fear using a device already implanted to treat epilepsy or PTSD. It may help researchers understand fear responses and improve treatments.
This trial tests if a combination of non-invasive brain stimulation (tDCS) and virtual reality meditation can reduce anxiety in people with Generalized Anxiety Disorder or related conditions. It aims to find a new, non-medication way to help manage symptoms.
This study tests a new non-invasive brain stimulation technique called temporal interference to help treat psychiatric conditions. Researchers will use MRI scanning and specialized stimulation equipment to see if this approach is safe and helpful.
This study looks at how the brain helps us find our way around in real-world settings. Researchers will monitor brain activity using your RNS device while you navigate, which may help understand memory and spatial skills.
This study uses a special brain stimulation method called TMS (transcranial magnetic stimulation) that is personalized to your brain activity, to help people whose anxiety has not improved with standard treatments. The goal is to see if this faster, tailored approach can reduce anxiety symptoms.
This study uses two non-invasive brain tools — transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) and functional MRI — to see how the brain's startle response works in people with anxiety. You will not receive a drug; the goal is to learn more about brain circuits involved in anxiety.
