Summary

The goal of this clinical trial is to evaluate whether the application of optimized transcranial direct current stimulation is more effective compared to sham stimulation for temporary improvement of swallowing function in patients with post-stroke dysphagia.

Conditions

  • Deglutition Disorders

Interventions

DEVICE

Optimized transcranial Direct Current Stimulation

transcranial Direct Current Stimulation 2mA for 30 min; The anode electrode will be located over the contralesional representation of the motor cortex swallowing area, while the cathode electrode will be positioned on the ipsilesional side

DEVICE

Sham transcranial Direct Current Stimulation

transcranial Direct Current sham Stimulation for 30 min; The anode electrode will be located over the contralesional representation of the motor cortex swallowing area, while the cathode electrode will be positioned on the ipsilesional side
