Effects of Transcranial DC Stimulation Coupled With Constraint Induced Movement Therapy on Motor Function in Stroke Patients


The purpose of this study is to determine whether noninvasive brain stimulation associated
with motor learning offers an additional benefit than motor learning alone in patients with
stroke.

The investigators hypothesis is that active transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS)
combined with constraint induced movement therapy (CIMT) will induce a greater motor
function improvement as compared with sham tDCS combined with CIMT.


More study details will be provided by Spaulding Rehabilitation Hospital.
