| Purpose: |
|
This is a prospective, non-randomized study designed to generate preliminary data to assess
the effect of a new portable non-invasive caloric stimulator on EEG waveform and cerebral
blood flow on normal healthy volunteers.
|
| Study Summary: |
|
Study activities include monitoring with bilateral transcranial Doppler (TCD), EEG and
continuous EKG monitoring at 30 second intervals for 5 minutes. This is followed by
placement of the caloric stimulator investigational device for 20 minutes. An additional 20
minutes of TCD and EEG monitoring will also be recorded. This will end study participation.
