(CERESET Trial)
What You Need to Know Before You Apply
What is the purpose of this trial?
This trial tests if Cereset, a sound-based treatment, can help stressed caregivers of high-grade glioma patients by using real-time sound feedback to balance brain activity.
Will I have to stop taking my current medications?
The trial protocol does not specify whether you need to stop taking your current medications. However, if you have a seizure disorder requiring ongoing anti-epileptic medication, you may not be eligible to participate.
How is the Cereset treatment different from other treatments for caregiver stress?
What data supports the effectiveness of the treatment Cereset for caregiver stress?
The research suggests that reducing caregiver stress can improve their quality of life and the care they provide, which is relevant to Cereset's goal of reducing caregiver stress.
