Vagus nerve stimulation for brain bleeding complication
Part of Brain & nervous system, Heart & circulation clinical trials.
This trial tests if a nerve stimulation device can prevent a dangerous blood vessel spasm after a brain aneurysm bleed. It may help reduce damage and improve recovery.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You have had a brain aneurysm bleed that is grade 3 or 4 on the Fisher scale
- You are between 18 and 65 years old
- You can safely get standard treatment to fix the aneurysm
- You agree to all study procedures and follow-up visits
- If you are a woman who can get pregnant, you must have a negative pregnancy test

This trial tests whether a gentle nerve stimulation device (tVNS) applied to the ear is safe and practical for patients recovering from a specific type of brain bleed. It aims to see if this non-invasive treatment might help recovery after the aneurysm is repaired.
This trial studies whether a noninvasive device that stimulates the vagus nerve can be safely given soon after a ruptured aneurysm bleed to improve outcomes. It may help calm the brain’s stress response after this type of stroke-like emergency.
This trial tests a gentle electrical ear stimulation device (taVNS) to see if it helps people recover after a recent brain bleed. It is for adults who had a specific type of bleed within the last 3 days and are generally stable otherwise.
This study tests a new non-invasive sensor to monitor brain pressure and explores a nerve stimulation technique that might help recovery after bleeding on the brain from a ruptured aneurysm. It aims to see if these approaches are safe and could improve outcomes.
This study tests whether pairing rehabilitation exercises with a gentle nerve stimulation device can help people who had a brain bleed (hemorrhagic stroke) more than 6 months ago improve arm and hand function. The treatment is non-invasive and may boost the brain's ability to relearn movements.
This trial studies whether stimulating a nerve near the ear (auricular VNS) can help after a spontaneous subarachnoid hemorrhage, a type of bleeding around the brain. If you qualify, you may receive the ear stimulation as an added treatment while doctors monitor your recovery.
