Effect of transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) delivered via dorsolateral prefrontal cortex on central post-stroke pain and depression: a case report
Conclusions: Further research is needed to determine if a series of periodic tDCS with short-intersession intervals applied to the DLPFC may be more effective than a single tDCS with long inter-session intervals, in decreasing pain and inducing long-term improvement in mood in people with stroke.PMID:33648417 | DOI:10.1080/09593985.2021.1891591

Multimodal physical therapy management of a 48-year-old female with post-stroke complex regional pain syndrome.
Abstract Abstract This case report describes a 48-year-old female who presented with complaints of right shoulder pain, hyperesthesias and swelling of the hand along with added symptoms of pain centralization following a cerebrovascular accident. On clinical evaluation, the patient satisfied the Budapest diagnostic criteria for Complex Regional Pain Syndrome (CRPS) type-1. Physical therapy management (1st three sessions) was initially focused on pain neurophysiology education with an aim to reduce kinesiophobia and reconceptualise her pain perception. The patient had an immediate significant improvement in her pai...
