Neurofeedback for diabetic nerve pain
Part of Brain & nervous system, Hormones & metabolism clinical trials.
This trial tests whether a brain-training technique called neurofeedback can help reduce nerve pain caused by diabetes. It is for people with type 1 or type 2 diabetes who have had moderate-to-severe nerve pain for at least 3 months.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
