No results posted yet for this study

Summary

Individuals who experienced a stroke over one year ago will be randomly assigned to receive 1 of 4 different conditions of brain stimulation. All individuals will receive therapy of the hand and arm following the stimulation. This study will try to determine which brain stimulation condition leads to the greatest improvement in hand and arm function.

Conditions

Interventions

DEVICE

transcranial direct current stimulation

This is a non-invasive form of stimulation which delivers safe, low levels of electrical current to the brain through the scalp.

BEHAVIORAL

intensive upper extremity motor training

This training is administered one-on-one with an occupational therapist. Activities will be focused on skills to help the individual function better in daily life.
