tDCS and Lower Limb Performance in Stroke
Effects of Transcranial Direct Current Stimulation on Lower Limb Performance in Stroke Patients
Source: ClinicalTrials.gov · Last updated 24 Mar 2025
Brief summary (registry, in English)
Lower limb rehabilitation is especially important, as the simple act of regaining the ability to walk has subsequent effects on the ability to engage in activities of daily living .So, this study will contribute in describing the management of lower limb motor recovery along with the therapeutic intervention (MRP) with tDCS (anodal stimulation). This study aims to address some of the drawbacks observed in previous studies like allocation concealment, small sample size due to drop outs, short term effects of tDCS and experimental designs as well.
