Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
To study the effect of short-duration transcutaneous auricular vagal nerve stimulation (taVNS) have a significant impact on the latency and amplitude of P300 event-related potential (ERP) in auditory oddball paradigm when compared to sham and baseline conditions.Timepoint: P300 at 15 minutes and 25 minutes during active or sham taVNS stimulation

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
P 300 after the sham or active taVNS (During recovery phase).Timepoint: after the taVNS & 10 minutes after the recovery, the P 300 waveform is recorded.
