Summary

The lay summary the sponsor registered on ClinicalTrials.gov.

Transcranial alternating current stimulation (tACS) in a wearable brain stimulation device that delivers a low intensity, pulsed, alternating current via scalp electrodes. Prior sham-controlled clinical trials have shown the therapeutic effects and safety of tACS for the treatment of anxiety and depression. In addition, tACS is rapid acting and well tolerated. After the device is issued to the patient during an in-office orientation and training session, the tACS device can be safely used by the patient at the convenience of their own home. Up to 40 Veterans under that age of 70 who have clinically significant anxiety will be enrolled in an 8-week open-label trial of Model FW-200 tACS to evaluate feasibility, acceptability, adherence and impact on anxiety, depression, post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), sleep and neurocognitive measures. Participants may have a concurrent diagnosis of major depressive disorder (MDD) and/or PTSD.
