Effect of Transcranial Direct Current Stimulation (tDCS) on Post-stroke Patients on Neuromotor Recovery

Evaluation of the Efficacy of Transcranial Direct Current Stimulation (tDCS) on Neurodegeneration and Neuromotor Recovery on Post-stroke Patients. a Pilot Study

Source: ClinicalTrials.gov · Last updated 13 Mar 2025

Brief summary (registry, in English)

The aim of the study is to evaluate whether a non-invasive brain stimulation technique (Transcranial Direct Current Stimulation) can influence the secondary neurodegeneration observed after a stroke (assessed based on serum concentration of neurofilaments) and can improve the functional outcome.
