Summary

The purpose of this study is to investigate the effect of dual-mode non-invasive brain stimulation (NIBS) with high-frequency repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) over the primary motor cortex of the lower leg and anodal transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) over the left dorsolateral prefrontal cortex compared with rTMS alone in patients with Parkinson's disease (PD) with freezing of gait (FOG).

Conditions

  • Parkinson Disease

Interventions

DEVICE

rTMS and tDCS

Patients underwent five consecutive daily sessions of dual-mode NIBS with high-frequency repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) over the primary motor cortex of the lower leg and anodal transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) over the left dorsolateral prefrontal cortex simultaneously

DEVICE

rTMS

Patients underwent five consecutive daily sessions of dual-mode NIBS with high-frequency repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) over the primary motor cortex of the lower leg and sham anodal transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) over the left dorsolateral prefrontal cortex simultaneously
