Trial Design

1Treatment groups
Experimental Treatment
Group I: VItalFlow Stimulation TreatmentExperimental Treatment1 Intervention
Enrolled subjects shall receive a VitalFlow stimulation after other standard-of-care treatments are initiated. VitalFlow treatment is initiated by powering on the System and positioning the two (Left and Right) VItalFlow coils on each side of the head (by the ear). The operator controls the VItalFlow Stimulation through the accompanying console with simple button operation. Once treatment is initiated, the VitalFlow provides continuous, biphasic pulses at a preset power cycle with the total treatment time under 5 min (fixed time). After treatment is completed, the coils are removed and replaced on the VitalFlow System.
