Brief summary (registry, in English)
The present project aims to evaluate the facilitatory modulation of motor responses of the limb upper limb by tsDCS in patients with arm/hand hyposthenia after cerebral ischemia to verify the possible therapeutic benefits that this type of stimulation can induce in terms of of strength, dexterity and effectiveness in acts of daily living.
