Official Title: Transcutaneous Auricular Vagus Nerve Stimulation (taVNS) for Persistent Symptoms From Lyme Disease: a Feasibility, Tolerability, and Safety Study
Brief Summary:
This study is one of the first studies to investigate a non-antibiotic approach to the treatment of symptoms that persist after antibiotic treatment for Lyme disease (PTLS).Transcutaneous auricular vagus nerve stimulation (taVNS) offers the potential of being an effective and non-toxic approach to reduce the burden of multisystem symptoms in patients with PTLS.This study seeks to address an important goal: to assess the safety, feasibility, and tolerability of a new non-invasive, non-pharmacologic treatment for…
