Summary

In recent studies, it has been reported that intermittent theta-burst stimulation (iTBS) provides additional benefits when applied in adjunct to the rehabilitation in all stages of stroke (acute, subacute, or chronic). In our study, it was aimed to evaluate the effectiveness of iTBS applied in addition to modified constraint-induced movement therapy (mCIMT). By doing so, we intend to increase patient adherence to neurorehabilitation and decrease the cost of rehabilitation.

Conditions

  • Stroke, Ischemic

Interventions

OTHER

Rehabilitation (modified constraint-induced movement therapy)

Modified constraint-induced movement therapy (mCIMT): It is an intervention used to improve functionality and mobility in the more affected upper extremity post-stroke.

OTHER

non-invasive brain stimulation (intermittent theta-burst stimulation)

Intermittent theta-burst stimulation (iTBS): It is a form of repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation and it increases the facilitation of the motor cortex.
