Key Points

  • Patients receiving tDCS in combination with virtual reality exhibited improved cognitive function, enhancing rehabilitation outcomes.
  • The quasi-randomized clinical trial demonstrated significant results in cognitive enhancement compared to a control group.
  • This intervention potentially leverages neuroplasticity to promote rehabilitation effectiveness post-stroke.
  • Further studies may explore the scalability and long-term impacts of tDCS in chronic stroke rehabilitation.

Abstract

Background Alone or combined with other advanced rehabilitative treatments , non-invasive transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) is a promising tool to augment neuroplasticity as well as improve cognitive function post stroke.
