DEVICE

Transcranial Direct Current Stimulation

"For both active and sham tDCS, the device will be hooked up to the closed loop system, using electrodes of 35cm\^2. During active tDCS, the subject will receive 2mA for 5 min. During sham tDCS, the current will only be active for 30 seconds (current ramping up and then down) to simulate the sensations of active tDCS.~The subject will undergo either active or sham stimulation for their first 24-hour EEG monitoring visit, and the opposite intervention on the second 24-hour EEG monitoring visit."
