No results posted yet for this study

Summary

This study evaluates the effect of additional transcranial direct stimulation (tDCS) on pain in patients with chronic neuropathic pain undergoing treatment with regional anaesthesiological techniques.

Conditions

  • Neuropathic Pain
  • Neuralgia

Interventions

DEVICE

cathodal transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS)

transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) is applied in active groups using cathodal active M1 stimulation. Active stimulation is applied with 2mA direct current via 20cm² electrodes.

DEVICE

sham transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS)

transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) is applied in active groups using a sham-stimulation including ramp up and ramp down of current.

DEVICE

anodal transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS)

transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) is applied in active groups using anodal active M1 stimulation. Active stimulation is applied with 2mA direct current via 20cm² electrodes.
