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.

This study uses brain scans (MRI) to understand how the brain processes sensory feelings in people with obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD). It compares people with OCD who have unusual sensory experiences with those who do not, and with healthy individuals.
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 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 research study uses a computer learning task to understand how the brain's decision-making areas work in people with OCD. It may help improve treatments by showing how your orbitofrontal cortex (a part of the brain involved in learning and choices) responds.
This trial tests whether a gentle brain stimulation (tDCS) combined with facing your fears can help people with hard-to-treat OCD. If you've tried multiple treatments without relief, this study may offer a new option.
