简要总结
The purpose of this study is to:
- Development of culturally sensitive videos for enhance informed consent with neurostimulation and determination of factors that influence minority interest in participating in neurostimulation research.
- Examination of the influence that video enhanced informed consent has on expectations with transcutaneous auricular vagus nerve stimulation (taVNS) and on treatment intended effects.

结局指标
主要结局
Change Expectation for Pain Relief as Measured by EXPECT Scores
时间窗: Baseline, and up to 90 minutes
The Expectations for Complementary and Alternative Medicine Treatments (EXPECT) is a 4-item questionnaire that assesses expectations for pain improvement. Each of the 4 items is scored on an 11-point scale, with 0 being no change and 10 representing complete relief (scores ranging from 0-10). Higher scores represent greater expectations for pain relief. Scores from all 4 items are summed to produce a total score ranging from 0 to 40, with higher scores indicating greater expectations for pain relief.
次要结局
- Change in Heart Rate Variability (HRV)(Baseline, up to 90 minutes)
