Cervical Plexus Hydrodissection With D5W Versus NS for Treatment-Resistant PTSD
NCT07382596 · Status: RECRUITING · Phase: PHASE4 · Type: INTERVENTIONAL · Enrollment: 50
Last updated 2026-05-19
Summary
PTSD is a chronic mental health condition that drastically reduces an individual's quality of life Dextrose injection with a small needle has been used for chronic pain patients and observational results have shown it to be effective in reducing anxiety, brain fog, and depression in patients with PTSD. This randomized trial will compare dextrose injection with an injection control of normal saline (NS)
