ABVN Phase 2-Studying the Effect of Stimulation on the Auricular Branch of the Vagal Nerve -B (ABVN2-B)
The purpose of this study is to find out if manual stimulation of the vagus nerve is possible. The vagus nerve is a largely-internal nerve that controls many bodily functions, including stomach function. The hope is that electrically stimulating the nerve around the external ear will also stimulate the internal vagus nerve.
