VR therapy with brain stimulation for PTSD in Ukrainians
Part of Mental health clinical trials.
This study tests if combining virtual reality therapy with a gentle brain stimulation technique (tDCS) can help treat PTSD symptoms in Ukrainian veterans and civilians. It may offer a new way to process traumatic memories.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

Other trials that look related to this one.
This trial tests a type of brain stimulation called repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) combined with a medication called D-cycloserine to help first responders with post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD). It aims to reduce PTSD symptoms by targeting brain areas involved in fear and memory.
This trial tests whether a type of brain stimulation called iTBS (which uses magnetic pulses) added to a standard PTSD therapy (EMDR) helps reduce PTSD symptoms more than EMDR alone. It involves 16 weeks of treatment and requires some commitments like avoiding alcohol.
This study tests transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) as a treatment for PTSD in Veterans. TMS uses magnetic pulses to stimulate brain areas linked to PTSD, aiming to reduce symptoms without medication.
This study tests a non-invasive brain treatment called TMS, which uses magnetic pulses to stimulate brain areas involved in PTSD, along with a medication called D-cycloserine that may help the treatment work better. It is designed for current or former military members with PTSD.
This study tests a non-invasive device that stimulates the vagus nerve in the ear to see if it helps reduce PTSD symptoms. You wear the device during sessions, and it may help your brain manage stress better.
This study uses brain scans and a non-invasive brain stimulation technique called repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) to help reduce PTSD symptoms in veterans. You may be eligible if you have ongoing PTSD symptoms and are on stable medication.
