Comparing the Location of the Motor Cortex in Children Using Two Methods

NCT02015338 · Status: COMPLETED · Type: OBSERVATIONAL · Enrollment: 47

Last updated 2019-07-18

No results posted yet for this study

Summary

Hypothesis: In typically developing children (TDC), use of conventional EEG landmarks to determine the brain area that controls hand function will not differ from TMS-guided determination of individual motor hotspots. In children with hemiparesis, however, those two locations will diverge. The prediction is that TMS will best guide Transcranial Direct Current Stimulation (tDCS) interventions
