Timing of transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) combined with speech and language therapy (SLT) for aphasia: study protocol for a randomized controlled trial
DiscussionResults from this study will aid in determining the optimum timing to combine transcranial direct current stimulation with speech-language therapy to facilitate better language outcomes for individuals with aphasia. In addition, effect sizes derived from this study may also inform larger clinical trials investigating the impact of transcranial direct current stimulation on functional communication in individuals with aphasia.Trial registrationClinicalTrials.gov NCT03773406.  December 12, 2018.
