    1 Draft recommendations

    1.1 Evidence on the safety and efficacy of transcutaneous electrical stimulation of the trigeminal nerve for attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) is inadequate in quality and quantity. Therefore, this procedure should only be used in the context of research. Find out what only in research means on the NICE interventional procedures guidance page.

    1.2 Further research should be in the form of randomised controlled trials and should include details of patient selection, treatment protocols, adherence and long-term outcomes.
