Efficacy of Non-Invasive Brain Stimulation on Dual-Task Walking After Stroke: A Repetitive Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (rTMS) Study
In Brief
A clinical study evaluating high frequency rTMS for Stroke. Completed, enrolled 15 participants across 1 site.
Detailed Summary
The study aims to identify neural locus critical for dual-task walking (walking and talking) in individuals with stroke. To achieve this aim, the investigators apply repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) to different parts of the brain and evaluate the effects of brain stimulation on dual-task walking speed.
Study Details
Timeline
Interventions
Participants receive 16 minutes (5Hz, 24 10-second trains with a inter-train interval of 30s) of high frequency rTMS applied to either primary motor cortex (M1), supplementary motor area (SMA) and dorsolateral prefrontal cortex (DLPFC) at different sessions. Walking performance is evaluated before and after the brain stimulation.
