Last updated 2016-11-08

No results posted yet for this study

Summary

The purpose of the study is to compare the analgesic effect of 2 mA anodal direct current stimulation on the right primary motor cortex (M1) (tDCS) with a similar stimulation on the spine (D10) (tsDCS) in healthy volunteers (HV) followed by a pilot study in patients suffering of endometriosis-related chronic pelvic pain (CPP)

Conditions

  • Endometriosis
  • Pelvic Pain
  • Transcranial Direct Current Stimulation
  • Spinal Cord Stimulation

Interventions

DEVICE

Transcranial DCS Healthy Volunteers

The DC stimulator manufactured by NeuroConn (Germany) will be used to deliver anodal direct current stimulation over the right primary motor cortex of healthy volunteers

DEVICE

Transspinal DCS Healthy Volunteers

The DC stimulator manufactured by NeuroConn (Germany) will be used to deliver anodal direct current stimulation over the D10 spinal process of healthy volunteers

DEVICE

Transcranial DCS CPP patients

The DC stimulator manufactured by NeuroConn (Germany) will be used to deliver anodal direct current stimulation over the right primary motor cortex of CPP patients

DEVICE

Transspinal DCS CPP patients

The DC stimulator manufactured by NeuroConn (Germany) will be used to deliver anodal direct current stimulation over the D10 spinal process of CPP patients
