Effects of Transcranial DC Stimulation Coupled With Constraint Induced Movement Therapy on Motor Function in Stroke Patients
In Brief
A clinical study evaluating transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS), constraint induced movement therapy (CIMT), and 1 other intervention for Stroke and Healthy. Completed, enrolled 44 participants across 1 site.
Detailed Summary
The purpose of this study is to determine whether noninvasive brain stimulation associated with motor learning offers an additional benefit than motor learning alone in patients with stroke. The investigators hypothesis is that active transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) combined with constraint induced movement therapy (CIMT) will induce a greater motor function improvement as compared with sham tDCS combined with CIMT.
