Study Summary

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effects associated with the use of in-office High-resolution, relational, resonance-based, electroencephalic mirroring (HIRREM) for participants with symptoms of military-related traumatic stress. This is a single site, non-randomized, open label pilot study. Outcome measures collected before, and after the intervention evaluate effects on self-reported symptoms, autonomic cardiovascular regulation, functional measures, blood and saliva biomarkers of stress and inflammation, and network connectivity on whole brain, rest MRI testing. Self-reported symptom outcomes will also be collected remotely at 1, 3, and 6 months after completion of intervention. The study will assess feasibility in this cohort, focused on the Special Operations community, will provide estimates of effect size, and durability of symptom changes, while providing important pilot data for future proposals and investigations.

Primary Outcome

The PTSD Checklist (PCL) - Military (M) is a symptom checklist to measure stress severity due to a traumatic experience in military settings. The PCL-M measures the American Psychiatric Association's Diagnostic and statistical manual of mental disorders (DSM-IV) of PTSD symptoms based on traumatic life experience. Seventeen items are rated on a Likert scale from 1 (not at all) to 5 (extremely), with a total score ranging from 17 to 85. Higher scores suggest more PTSD symptoms. Primary outcome fo
