Evaluation of the Impact of an Acupuncture Session in Healthy Volunteers on the Kinetics of Cerebral Activity Using the Bispectral Index (BIS) (Bisprectral2)

February 13, 2023 updated by: Elsan

Randomized Propective Study Evaluating the Impact of an Acupuncture Session in Healthy Volunteers on the Kinetics of Cerebral Activity Using the Bispectral Index (BIS)

To be able to have data on brain activity during an acupuncture session, this pilot study is necessary to evaluate the kinetics of the bispectral index. This research aims to evaluate the kinetics of the bispectral index in healthy volunteers during an acupuncture session, Sham acupuncture or resting in a lying position.

Study Overview

Status

Status

Indicates the current recruitment status or the expanded access status.
Completed

Conditions

Conditions

The disease, disorder, syndrome, illness, or injury that is being studied. On ClinicalTrials.gov, conditions may also include other health-related issues, such as lifespan, quality of life, and health risks.

Intervention / Treatment

Intervention / Treatment

A process or action that is the focus of a clinical study. Interventions include drugs, medical devices, procedures, vaccines, and other products that are either investigational or already available. Interventions can also include noninvasive approaches, such as education or modifying diet and exercise.

Study Type

Phase

Phase

The stage of a clinical trial studying a drug or biological product, based on definitions developed by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA). The phase is based on the study's objective, the number of participants, and other characteristics. There are five phases: Early Phase 1 (formerly listed as Phase 0), Phase 1, Phase 2, Phase 3, and Phase 4. Not Applicable is used to describe trials without FDA-defined phases, including trials of devices or behavioral interventions.

Participation Criteria

Researchers look for people who fit a certain description, called eligibility criteria. Some examples of these criteria are a person's general health condition or prior treatments.

Eligibility Criteria

Eligibility Criteria

The key requirements that people who want to participate in a clinical study must meet or the characteristics they must have. Eligibility criteria consist of both inclusion criteria (which are required for a person to participate in the study) and exclusion criteria (which prevent a person from participating). Types of eligibility criteria include whether a study accepts healthy volunteers, has age or age group requirements, or is limited by sex.

Arms and Interventions

Participant Group / Arm

Participant Group / Arm

A group or subgroup of participants in a clinical trial that receives a specific intervention/treatment, or no intervention, according to the trial's protocol.
Intervention / Treatment

Intervention / Treatment

A process or action that is the focus of a clinical study. Interventions include drugs, medical devices, procedures, vaccines, and other products that are either investigational or already available. Interventions can also include noninvasive approaches, such as education or modifying diet and exercise.
EXPERIMENTAL: Acupuncture arm
One session of acupuncture with precise acupuncture points
Procedure: Acupuncture
one session with precise acupunture points
Behavioral: A digital stress scale
The digital stress scale before and after the session: Oral digital scale. The doctor asks the participant to quantify their anxiety on a virtual scale ranging from 0 (absent anxiety) to 10 (maximum anxiety imaginable)
Behavioral: a relaxation questionnaire
The Global Relaxation Questionnaire after the session: Dovero Global Relaxation Scale
Diagnostic test: Bispectral Index
BIS is based on an EEG analysis algorithm
SHAM_COMPARATOR: Sham acupuncture arm
One session of sham acupunture (needles inserted 1 mm, outside the acupuncture points)
Behavioral: A digital stress scale
The digital stress scale before and after the session: Oral digital scale. The doctor asks the participant to quantify their anxiety on a virtual scale ranging from 0 (absent anxiety) to 10 (maximum anxiety imaginable)
Behavioral: a relaxation questionnaire
The Global Relaxation Questionnaire after the session: Dovero Global Relaxation Scale
Diagnostic test: Bispectral Index
BIS is based on an EEG analysis algorithm
PLACEBO_COMPARATOR: Control arm
One session where no needles are inserted, the subject lies down under the same conditions as group 1 and 2
Behavioral: A digital stress scale
The digital stress scale before and after the session: Oral digital scale. The doctor asks the participant to quantify their anxiety on a virtual scale ranging from 0 (absent anxiety) to 10 (maximum anxiety imaginable)
Behavioral: a relaxation questionnaire
The Global Relaxation Questionnaire after the session: Dovero Global Relaxation Scale
Diagnostic test: Bispectral Index
BIS is based on an EEG analysis algorithm

Study record dates

These dates track the progress of study record and summary results submissions to ClinicalTrials.gov. Study records and reported results are reviewed by the National Library of Medicine (NLM) to make sure they meet specific quality control standards before being posted on the public website.

Study Major Dates

Study Start (ACTUAL)

Study Start

The actual date on which the first participant was enrolled in a clinical study. The "anticipated" study start date is the date that the researchers think will be the study start date.
April 19, 2022

Primary Completion (ACTUAL)

Primary Completion

The date on which the last participant in a clinical study was examined or received an intervention to collect final data for the primary outcome measure. Whether the clinical study ended according to the protocol or was terminated does not affect this date. For clinical studies with more than one primary outcome measure with different completion dates, this term refers to the date on which data collection is completed for all the primary outcome measures. The "anticipated" primary completion date is the date that the researchers think will be the primary completion date for the study.
