An interventional study of Brain-computer interface rehabilitation in Functional Neurological Disorder, Conversion Disorder and Functional Neurological Disorders, sponsored by King's College London. Not yet recruiting. Open to participants aged 18 Years to 60 Years. Per ClinicalTrials.gov, last updated 2025-06-05.
Sponsored by King's College London · Not applicable, Interventional, and Basic science
The purpose of this study is to determine whether a course of rehabilitation using a device called a brain-computer interface can change the level of control people feel over bodily movements, in functional neurological disorder.
89 studies on the registry are indexed under Conversion Disorder; 34 are open to participants now.
This study's planned enrollment of 24 is below the median of 38 across 51 interventional studies indexed under Conversion Disorder.

Underlined terms in the criteria open these too. Explained by clinicaltrials.gg, not part of the registry record. The study team decides who can take part.
The American Psychiatric Association’s manual of mental health diagnoses. DSM-5 (2013, revised as DSM-5-TR in 2022) replaced DSM-IV, and some studies still name the older edition. “Meets DSM criteria for …” means diagnosed by that edition’s diagnostic criteria, usually by a clinician in an interview.
Before you join, the study team explains what taking part involves — its purpose, what happens, the risks and possible benefits — and answers your questions, so you can decide freely. Consent is usually recorded on a form (the informed consent form, ICF) signed by you or, where the law allows, by someone legally authorised to decide for you.
You can keep asking questions during the study, you are told of new information that matters, and you can choose to leave at any time.
