COMBINED EFFECTS OF FOCAL MUSCLE VIBRATION AND tDCS ON MOTOR RECOVERY IN STROKE
Status: Recruiting
Location: See location...
Intervention Type: Device, Other
Study Type: Interventional
Study Phase: Not Applicable
SUMMARY
Although tDCS and FV have shown some benefit as stand-alone treatment, researcher suggest that combining intervention with complementary mechanism can lead to additive or synergistic benefits which might yield more significant improvement in functional outcome hence the author propose to plan the combination of FV with tDCS for motor recovery /spasticity in stroke patients.
