P 114. Anodal transcranial direct current stimulation in early treatment of post-stroke non-fluent aphasia

Conclusions: The findings provide only a weak evidence of A-tDCS behavioural gains during early neurorehabilitation of post-stroke aphasia. Further research is needed to investigate the effectiveness of this kind of neuromodulation. Different modes and parameters of tDCS should be explored considering such important factors determining recovery from aphasia as type and severity of language impairment, lesion site and size, time since stroke, and degree of hemispheric language laterality.
