Summary

The aim of the study is to evaluate the analgesic effects of navigated repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation in central post stroke pain. MRI based navigation is used to determine the exact locations for stimulation.

Conditions

  • Central Post Stroke Pain

Interventions

DEVICE

navigated rTMS of somatosensory cortex 2

Navigated repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation of the secondary somatosensory cortex ( 10 Hz ), 5 daily sessions per week for two weeks

DEVICE

SHAM rTMS with SHAM block

Repetitive SHAM transcranial magnetic stimulation of the motor cortex ( 10Hz) 5 daily sessions per week for two weeks.

DEVICE

navigated rTMS of motor cortex

Navigated repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation of the motor cortex ( 10 Hz ) ,5 daily sessions per week for two weeks.
