Using Electroencephalography (EEG) and Transcranial Current Stimulation (tCS) to Study and Modulate Cognition Study

NCT03293316 · Status: COMPLETED · Phase: NA · Type: INTERVENTIONAL · Enrollment: 72

No results posted yet for this study

Summary

Inter-individual variability in responsiveness to interventions poses great challenges for translational neuroscience, and health care in general. The investigations sought to examine the potential for high-frequency transcranial random noise stimulation (tRNS) to modulate sustained attention in a manner that was informed by individual differences in EEG indices.

Conditions

  • Inter-individual Variability

Interventions

DEVICE

Transcranial Random Noise Stimulation

The transcranial random noise stimulation was delivered using a StarStim device (Neuroelectrics®, Barcelona, Spain). The electrodes were encased in a pair of saline-soaked sponges (25 cm2 ), and were secured within a Neurolectrics EEG cap over right DLPFC (F4) and right IPL (P4), according to the 10-20 international EEG system. Other details are stated under the 'intervention arm' descriptions.
