This study is looking at how a treatment called anodal transcranial electrical stimulation (A-tES) might help people who have had a moderate to severe traumatic brain injury (TBI). A-tES uses a device to deliver a mild electrical current to the brain, which may help the brain heal and improve thinking skills. Researchers want to see how brain activity changes over time after a TBI and if A-tES can improve thinking and brain activity. You might be able to join if you are 18-80 years old, have had a moderate to severe TBI, and meet other specific health criteria. The study will measure your cognitive task behavior and brain activity (EEG oscillatory power) for up to 6 months after your brain injury. The current status of this study is unclear, but it plans to enroll 60 participants.

Study design

This is an interventional study that plans to enroll 60 participants with moderate to severe TBI. It compares anodal transcranial electrical stimulation (A-tES) to a sham comparator.

What's involved

During the acute phase of TBI, all participants will complete clinical questionnaires and perform 2 cognitive computer tasks while their brain activity is recorded.

Compensation

Not stated in the trial record.

Follow-up

Participants will be followed for cognitive task behavior and brain activity from enrollment to 6 months after brain injury.
