No results posted yet for this study

Summary

A randomized, double-blind, sham-controlled clinical trial will be conducted with 30 people with stroke, recruited at a referral hospital in João Pessoa. After recruitment they will be randomized into two groups: Group 1 - active stimulation and group - 2 sham stimulation. Participants will receive 10 sessions of ETCC, for 20 minutes, on alternate days (3 times a week), where the electrodes will be positioned over the primary motor cortex. 3 minutes of EEG at rest will be taken from each participant, and they will be instructed not to be actively involved in any cognitive or mental activity. In the first and last meetings, evaluations will be carried out, the outcomes evaluated will be: motor function, quality of life and functional connectivity.
