Trans Cranial Brain Stimulation for Stroke Rehabilitation

"The subject will be practicing mental imagery along with mental imagery. A video of the task will be played in front of the patient and the subject will be asked to perform the mental practice of the activity.The video will be played thrice.The electrodes will be placed at the premotor cortex over the scalp corresponding to the topographical representation of upper limb on the contralateral cerebral hemisphere.Transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS), (or Transcranial Micropolarization), is the most commonly used type of tCS \[2, 19-25\]. It employs a battery-driven stimulator to deliver weak direct currents (1.5 mA) through contact electrodes over the scalp. The current flow modulates neuronal excitability by altering the resting membrane potential of the neurons and produces aftereffects.Transcranial magnetic stimulation for 30 minutes, 5 days a week for 2 weeks.Transcranial direct stimulation for 30 minutes, 5 days a week for 2 weeks"
