Trial Outcomes & Findings for Addition of Ondansetron to Ongoing Antipsychotic Treatment for Schizophrenia (NCT NCT00149734)

NCT ID: NCT00149734

Last Updated: 2021-08-13

Results Overview

P50 Sensory Gating as measured by evoked potentials (response to stimuli, in this case, clicking sounds).The P50 potential was identified and measured using a computer algorithm. The amplitude of the P50 test wave was divided by the amplitude of the P50 conditioning wave, expressed as a percentage: the P50 ratio. Lower P50 ratios represent better outcomes.
