A survey from the University of Nottingham

 

Have Your Say on a Potential New Treatment for Children with Tics

 

 

Are you a parent or guardian of a child with a tic disorder? We’d like to hear your views on median nerve stimulation as a possible future treatment for children under 12.

 

What's involved?

The survey takes just 5–10 minutes to complete. Findings will help determine whether there is sufficient interest to seek funding for further research in this area.

 

Why take part?

This short survey explores whether families would be interested in research investigating whether median nerve stimulation could help reduce tic frequency in younger children. You'll be asked about your child's current treatments, your and your child's opinions on median nerve stimulation, and what you think future tic disorder research should focus on.

 

Who can take part?

Parents or guardians of children under 12 years old with a tic disorder are invited to take part in this survey.
