Pilot Study - Auricular Vagus Nerve Stimulation Effects on Cardiovascular Parameters

NCT02139293 · Status: UNKNOWN · Phase: NA · Type: INTERVENTIONAL · Enrollment: 10

No results posted yet for this study

Summary

The purpose of this pilot study is to evaluate the effect of auricular autonomous nervous system stimulation on cardiovascular parameters and sympathovagal balance in healthy subjects. It is investigated if auricular vagal nerve stimulation affects heart rate variability as well as peripheral local blood perfusion, and if this effect depends on the site of stimulation in the auricle, whereas four distinct stimulation points are tested.
