No results posted yet for this study

Summary

The aim of this study was to compare the results between transcutaneous auricular vagus nerve stimulation and trigeminal nerve stimulation with the results obtained from heart rate variability, pulse and blood pressure measurements and to reveal which method is more effective in autonomic nervous system neuromodulation.

Hypotheses of the study:

H0: Vagus nerve stimulation is more effective than trigeminal nerve simulation in terms of heart rate variability.

H1: Trigeminal nerve stimulation is more effective than vagus nerve simulation in terms of heart rate variability.

Conditions

  • Autonomic Nervous System Imbalance

Interventions

DEVICE

Stimulation of the vagus nerve through the tragus and concha in the ear

DEVICE

Transcutaneous Auricular Trigeminal Nerve Stimulation

Stimulation of the trigeminal nerve via the auriculotemporal nerve with a clip electrode from the upper auricle
