Study Summary

This study evaluates the efficacy of auricular neurostimulation via an non-invasive percutaneous electrical nerve field stimulator (PENFS) in adolescents with functional nausea. A neurostimulator is applied to the outer ear and stimulates several nerves that are thought to be involved in transmission of nausea and vomiting signals. Half of the study subjects will receive an active nerve stimulator while the other half will receive an inactive one.

Primary Outcome

Measures 1) frequency of nausea on a scale 0-4 over past week (0=not at all; 4=every day), 2) average number of nausea episodes/day over past week on a scale 0-4 (0=none; 4=constant), 3) average duration of nausea episodes over past week on scale 0-4 (0=none; 4=most or all of day) and 4) severity of nausea on scale 0-10 (0=none;10=most nausea possible). The severity subscale is converted to a 5 point scale ranging from 0-4. The mean of all 4 subscales yields a total score ranging from 0 to 4, wi
