NCT02264652 · Status: COMPLETED · Phase: PHASE1 · Type: INTERVENTIONAL · Enrollment: 1

Last updated 2018-01-26

No results posted yet for this study

Summary

High-Definition transcranial Direct Current Stimulation (HD tDCS)

Genuine cathodal HD-tDCS will be delivered through High-Definition electrodes that will be arranged on the skull according to a 4x1-ring configuration with the central cathodal electrode placed over the identified target and surrounding return electrodes forming approximately a 5-cm radius ring.

Aim: To explore whether a novel form of tDCS can be a safe noninvasive treatment that could potentially suppress seizures in refractory partial-onset epilepsy.
