Condition: Auricular Stimulation · Sponsor: Medical University of South Carolina
In this one-visit, randomized, double-blind, sham-controlled trial, we plan to use a novel concurrent transcutaneous auricular neurostimulation (tAN) paradigm during functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) paradigm in 96 individuals to determine whether tAN administered to two cranial nerves simultaneously produces greater neurophysiologic effects than stimulating solely to the auricular branch of the vagus nerve (ABVN) or the auriculotemporal nerve (ATN; branch of trigeminal nerve) alone. Within the MRI scanner, each participant will be connected to a series of electrodes that stimulate 4 targets (ABVN only, ATN only, ABVN plus ATN, and Sham).
