Testing a brain-stimulation approach after concussion recovery
Part of Brain & nervous system, Injuries & trauma clinical trials.
This early study tests whether a brain-stimulation method can help after recovery from a mild to moderate traumatic brain injury (TBI), sometimes called concussion. It also may include healthy volunteers to compare safety and computer-based brain measures.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

Other trials that look related to this one.
This trial tests a new treatment called Cognitive Network Restoration Therapy that uses deep brain stimulation to help people recover thinking skills after a moderate to severe traumatic brain injury. It is for people who are still having problems with daily life more than two years after their injury.
This trial studies whether brain stimulation through the scalp can improve cognitive (thinking and memory) training in people with chronic mild traumatic brain injury (TBI). Participants train on thinking tasks while receiving a targeted “control network neuromodulation” approach to see if it enhances training results.
This study tests whether a type of brain stimulation called TMS can help people with ongoing symptoms after a mild concussion. If you have had concussion symptoms for at least a month but less than a year, you may be able to join.
This study tests if a wearable brain stimulation device (tDCS) combined with computer-based training can improve attention and concentration in older veterans with a history of mild brain injury. It involves several sessions from home using a headset and computer.
This trial tests if a gentle brain stimulation technique called tDCS can help people with persistent memory or thinking problems after a mild concussion. You will use a smartphone app and may receive active or placebo stimulation over several sessions.
This study tests whether early brain stimulation can help recovery after a moderate to severe traumatic brain injury (TBI). It might help improve thinking and awareness in patients who can already speak and follow directions.
