Summary

Repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) or transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) has been used for the modulation of stroke patients' motor function by altering the cortical excitability. Recently, more challenging approaches, such as stimulation of two or more sites or use of dual modality have been studied in stroke patients. In this study, simultaneous stimulation using both inhibitory rTMS (1Hz) and anodal tDCS (dual-mode stimulation) over bilateral primary motor cortices (M1s) was investigated to compare its modulatory effects with single inhibitory rTMS stimulation in subacute stroke patients.

Conditions

Interventions

DEVICE

Dual-mode stimulation

1Hz rTMS over contralesional primary motor cortex and anodal tDCS over ipsilesional primary motor cortex are simultaneously simulated.

DEVICE

Single sham stimulation

1Hz rTMS over contralesional primary motor cortex and sham tDCS (no stimulation) over ipsilesional primary motor cortex are simultaneously simulated.
