NCT04875221 · Status: WITHDRAWN · Phase: NA · Type: INTERVENTIONAL

Last updated 2023-09-21

No results posted yet for this study

Summary

This project will examine the use of real-time fMRI (rt-fMRI) neurofeedback in the regulation of neural networks underlying symptoms experienced by individuals with posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD). Investigators will use rt-fMRI neurofeedback in order to facilitate emotion regulation during symptom induction, and examine individual differences that influence regulation capacities.

Interventions

COMBINATION_PRODUCT

Connectivity-based neurofeedback

Real-time fMRI neurofeedback will be used to non-invasively regulate neural network connectivity patterns associated with symptoms and emotional arousal among patients with PTSD and healthy individuals, with the aim to induce lasting neuronal effects and reduce symptoms.
