The Prism Conformity Trial for Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder in Adolescents

Recruiting now · Not applicable

Conditions studied: Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder in Adolescence

In brief

Prism is a software as a medical device (SaMD) to be prescribed by clinicians as an adjunct to the standard of care treatment of patients with PTSD. The Prism software device runs on a laptop using an EEG signal input (g).Nautilos PRO (K171669). The primary objective of the study is to extend the use of the FDA cleared Prism for PTSD (K222101) to an adolescent population and to confirm the safety of fifteen (15±3) EEG-NF training sessions using the Prism software in reducing PTSD-related symptoms in adolescents. The study aims to demonstrate the safety profile of Prism, having no device-related serious adverse events (SAEs), consistent with findings in the adult population, throughout the course of Prism treatment in an adolescent population.
