Brain wave study for OCD habits
Part of Mental health clinical trials.
This study uses an EEG (a safe, painless cap that records brain activity) to look for unique brain patterns linked to habit behaviors in people with OCD. Participating could help researchers better understand OCD habits and improve future treatments.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

- You are between 18 and 50 years old

This study uses MRI scans to understand how the brain processes sensory feelings in people with OCD. You may be able to join if you have moderate to severe OCD and certain sensory experiences, like feelings of things being "just right."
This study looks at brain signals to understand why OCD treatments may not work for some people. If you have OCD and are about to start OCD therapy, you may be invited to take part.
This study is testing whether brain signals measured during deep brain stimulation (DBS) can help doctors better treat Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder. It may offer a new way to personalize treatment for people with severe, treatment-resistant OCD.
This trial looks for “biomarkers” (measurable signs in behavior or brain patterns) in people with obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD) while doing specific tasks. It may help researchers understand what makes OCD change over time and how treatments could be guided.
This trial studies whether deep brain stimulation surgery—guided using special scans—can reduce severe obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD) symptoms. It may help people whose OCD has not improved enough with standard medicines and therapy.
This trial studies a form of brain stimulation to help reduce severe obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD) symptoms. It may be an option if your OCD has not improved despite several standard treatments and therapy.
