Transcranial direct current stimulation combined with visuo-motor training as treatment for chronic stroke patients.

CONCLUSION: Four-week visuo-motor training combined with tDCS showed no difference between the Active and Sham groups in the total UE FMA score, which may be explained by heterogeneity of the degree of recovery in the Active group. However, the shoulder-elbow FMA sub-score improved significantly more in the Active compared to the Sham group, which deserves further study. PMID: 28506002 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]
