Parametric Testing of Direct Physiological Effects of Transcutaneous Vagus Nerve Stimulation (tVNS) in Healthy Controls

15. července 2016 aktualizováno: Medical University of South Carolina

The purpose of this study is to determine the feasibility and safety of Transcutaneous Vagus Nerve Stimulation (tVNS) in healthy controls. Tested in healthy subjects (HS) the physiological effects of tVNS at different stimulation parameters. The electrical stimulation variables will be pulse width, frequency, and current. This will be tested in a laboratory setting and will measure tVNS effects on heart rate, respiration rate, blood pressure, and perceived pain. This is a feasibility and small safety study.

Hypothesis: tVNS is feasible and safe

Experimentální: Active tVNS Stimulation
Stimulating electrode will be placed on left tragus of subject. Current will be held constant (200% perceptual threshold) while pulse width and frequency are varied.The intervention used to keep current constant is Digitmer High Voltage Stimulator model DS7A TENS unit. Each stimulation period (9 randomized stimulation parameters varying in pulse width and frequency) will last 1 minute with a 3 minute break between each parameter. Physiological data (O2 saturation, blood pressure, breathing rate, and Electrocardiogram (EKG) to measure heart rate ) will be collected continuously.
Falešný srovnávač: Sham tVNS Stimulation
Stimulating electrode will be placed on left ear lobe of subject for sham tVNS stimulation condition. Current will be held constant (200% perceptual threshold) while pulse width and frequency are varied. The intervention used to keep current constant is Digitmer High Voltage Stimulator model DS7A TENS unit. Each stimulation period (9 randomized stimulation parameters varying in pulse width and frequency) will last 1 minute with a 3 minute break between each parameter. Physiological data (O2 saturation, blood pressure, breathing rate, and Electrocardiogram (EKG) to measure heart rate ) will be collected continuously.
