Pulse stimulation therapy for post-COVID syndrome
Part of Infections, Lungs & breathing clinical trials.
This trial tests a non-invasive brain stimulation method called Transcranial Pulse Stimulation (TPS) to see if it can help people with lingering post-COVID symptoms like fatigue and brain fog. If you've had COVID-19 and still have symptoms for at least 12 months, this study might be an option for you.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You must be between 20 and 80 years old
- You had COVID-19 confirmed by a test or doctor, and it's been at least 12 months since your first infection
- You have been diagnosed with post-COVID syndrome by a doctor, or a doctor strongly suspects you have it
- You must not have severe depression or dementia, and you should not have significant fatigue that started before COVID
- You must not have metal implants in your head, a pacemaker, or take blood thinners

Other trials that look related to this one.
This trial tests a gentle brain stimulation technique (transcranial direct current stimulation) to see if it can ease long COVID symptoms like brain fog and fatigue. You will receive either the real stimulation or a sham (inactive) treatment to compare effects.
This trial tests a safe, non-invasive brain stimulation technique (transcranial direct current stimulation, or tDCS) to see if it can reduce persistent headaches and chronic pain in people with long covid. If you have ongoing pain after a confirmed covid infection, this could offer a new way to find relief.
This trial uses brain scans to understand why people with long COVID feel very tired or have trouble thinking clearly. It could help find new treatments for these symptoms.
This study tests whether a personalized exercise program can help reduce fatigue after a COVID-19 infection. You'll work with a coach over video calls to see if gentle activity can improve your energy levels.
This trial tests whether a non-invasive brain treatment called rTMS (repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation) can help with the severe fatigue and brain fog that often come with long COVID. You would need to be able to come to the hospital for multiple treatment sessions.
This study tests whether a special type of magnetic stimulation (called TMS) can help with lingering symptoms after COVID-19, such as loss of smell, ringing in the ears, or fatigue. The treatment is safe and non-invasive, using a magnet placed near your head.
