Summary

The aim of the present study is to investigate the efficacy of prefrontal transcranial Direct Current Stimulation (tDCS) on cognitive functions and electrophysiological measures in Parkinson's Disease Mild Cognitive Impairment (PD-MCI). The participants will be assigned to active and sham groups (1:1) and will receive 10 sessions of tDCS (twice a day) for 5 days. The study will also examine if the effects may last for a month.

Conditions

  • Parkinson Disease

Interventions

DEVICE

Transcranial direct current stimulation

Participants will receive a total of 10 stimulation sessions on 5 consecutive days (twice a day with 3-4 hours interval). During each session, 2 milliAmpers (mA) of active or sham tDCS will be applied for 20 minutes over the dorsolateral prefrontal cortex (left anodal/right anodal).
