Recovering Arm Function in Chronic Post-stroke Patients Using Combined HD-tDCS and Virtual Reality Therapy
Sponsor: University Hospital, Montpellier
Summary
The study aims to determine the added value of combining high-definition transcranial direct current stimulation (HD-tDCS) in a rehabilitation program based on virtual reality therapy (VRT) to potentiate the effects on neuroplasticity and further improve functional recovery of the arm in chronic stroke patients.
