EEG guidance for brain stimulation after severe injury
Part of Brain & nervous system, Injuries & trauma clinical trials.
This study tests whether using brain wave monitoring (EEG) can help guide electrical stimulation treatment for people with severe traumatic brain injury. It aims to see if this approach can improve recovery.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You or your loved one had a severe traumatic brain injury (Glasgow Coma Scale score 3 to 8) at least 7 days ago.
- You or your loved one is 18 years or older.
- Vital signs (like blood pressure and heart rate) are stable.
- No history of mental health disorders or brain diseases that get worse over time (like Alzheimer's).
- No uncontrolled epilepsy, serious heart rhythm problems, or a pacemaker.
- Not pregnant, and no conditions that would interfere with placing sensors on the scalp.

This study uses a special EEG test to measure brain activity in people who are not fully conscious after a recent brain injury. The goal is to find better ways to know if someone will wake up and recover thinking abilities.
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.
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.
This study uses a painless test called SSEPs (checking nerve signals in response to mild electrical pulses) to see if it can help predict how patients with severe brain injury might recover. It hopes to give families and doctors better information about the outlook.
This study looks at patients with severe traumatic brain injury (TBI) who already need brain pressure or oxygen monitoring. Doctors want to see if certain tests can help predict how well someone might recover.
This study uses advanced brain monitoring to detect early warning signs and help predict recovery in patients with severe brain injuries from trauma or bleeding. It aims to give doctors better tools to care for you or your loved one.
