No results posted yet for this study

Summary

To observe the clinical effect and safety of transcranial electrical stimulation on patients with refractory epilepsy before and after treatment and analyze its therapeutic mechanism.

Conditions

  • Transcranial Direct Current Stimulation
  • EEG
  • Functional Magnetic Resonance Imaging
  • Refractory Epilepsy
  • Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation

Interventions

DEVICE

Active Comparator: Unilateral real High definition transcranial direct current stimulation

Improvement of cortical excitability, unilateral stimulation was effective, and no side effects were observed

DEVICE

Active Comparator: Bilateral real High definition transcranial direct current stimulation

Improved cortical excitability, the effect was more obvious than unilateral stimulation, the effect lasted longer, and no side effects were observed

DEVICE

Sham Comparator: Sham High definition transcranial direct current stimulation

The sham stimulation is mainly used for blank control, control variables, and exclude the interference of other factors
