Trial Outcomes & Findings for Sensory Effects of Rapidly-Changing Magnetic Fields (NCT NCT01632800)

NCT ID: NCT01632800

Last Updated: 2019-10-08

Results Overview

Pulsed magnetic fields will be applied a total of forty-eight times to the right hand of each subject. After each time the magnet coil is pulsed, the subject will be asked if he or she notices any sensation (for example, tingling or tapping). Subjects will be asked to rate the sensation from 0 to 4, where 0 means no sensation, 1 means barely-noticeable sensation, 2 means easily noticeable sensation, 3 means unpleasant sensation, and 4 means very unpleasant sensation.
