The Ability of Brain Waves Activity to Detect Patient Susceptibility to Post-Operative Pain

NCT07445633 · Status: COMPLETED · Type: OBSERVATIONAL · Enrollment: 100

No results posted yet for this study

Summary

This observational study evaluates whether resting-state EEG alpha activity can help identify endodontic patients at higher risk of post-operative pain following single-visit root canal treatment. EEG will be recorded before treatment and pain intensity will be self-reported using a Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) during the early post-treatment period.

Conditions

  • Pulp Disease, Dental

Interventions

DIAGNOSTIC_TEST

Detection of th alpha brain waves activity

The study utilizes the EMOTIV® EPOC X, a mobile, wireless 14-channel EEG headset. This differs from traditional clinical EEG setups that often require bulky, wired equipment and the application of messy conductive gels, making this method much more suitable for a chair-side dental environment.
