Safety and tolerability of transcranial direct current stimulation to stroke patients – A phase I current escalation study
Background and objective: A prior meta-analysis revealed that higher doses of transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) have a better post-stroke upper-extremity motor recovery. While this finding suggests that currents greater than the typically used 2 mA may be more efficacious, the safety an...
