Combined Robotic Training and tDCS in Chronic SCI

NCT03555838 · Status: UNKNOWN · Phase: PHASE3 · Type: INTERVENTIONAL · Enrollment: 13

Last updated 2022-03-02

No results posted yet for this study

Summary

The purpose of this study is to establish the value of combined non-invasive stimulation (tDCS) and behavioral training (robotics) in SCI rehabilitation, and understand the mechanisms of this interaction and its relationship to functional outcome. The investigators hypothesize that supplementary tDCS will augment the functional improvement from robot-training, in chronic SCI.

Conditions

  • Spinal Cord Injuries

Interventions

OTHER

transcranial direct current stimulation

Transcranial direct current stimulation, a form of neuromodulation that uses a low direct current delivered via sponge electrodes on the head.

OTHER
