Association of dual transcranial electrical stimulation (tDCS) with upper limb robotic therapy in chronic stroke patients
Project objectivesThis study consists of a randomized controlled trial to investigate the efficacy of robotic therapy in association with low-intensity transcranial electrical stimulation (tDCS) to improve upper limb function in patients with chronic stroke. The robotic therapy will be carried out through the use of a mechanical arm called Armeo Power. |
