Completed · Not applicable
Conditions studied: Asthma
In brief
The purpose of this pilot study is to collect preliminary clinical data related to the safety and preliminary clinical benefits of non-invasive vagal nerve stimulation with the AlphaCore™ device for the relief of acute bronchoconstriction due to asthma. Up to 30 subjects who meet all inclusion/exclusion criteria and consent to participate in the study may be enrolled at up to 5 investigational (study) sites.
