TDCS modulates cortical excitability in patients with disorders of consciousness
Transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) has been reported to be a promising technique for consciousness improvement for patients with disorders of consciousness (DOC). However, there has been no direct electrophysiological evidence to demonstrate the efficacy of tDCS on patients with DOC. Therefore, we aim to measure the cortical excitability changes induced by tDCS in patients with DOC,...
متن کاملChanges of the brain’s bioelectrical activity in cognition, consciousness, and some mental disorders
Background: An electroencephalogram (EEG) is an accepted method in neurophysiology with a wide application. Different types of brain rhythms indicate that simultaneous activity of the brain cortex neurons depend on the person’s mental state. Method: we have focus on reviewing the existing literature pertaining to changes of the brain’s bioelectrical activity that recorded from the ...
متن کاملtDCS in patients with disorders of consciousness: sham-controlled randomised double blind study
Objectives: We here assessed the effects of left dorsolateral prefrontal cortex transcranial direct current stimulation (DLPF-tDCS) on Coma Recovery ScaleRevised scores in severely brain-damaged patients with disorders of consciousness. Methods: In a double-blind sham-controlled crossover design, anodal and sham tDCS were delivered in randomized order over the left DLPF cortex for 20 minutes in...

OBJECTIVE We assessed the effects of left dorsolateral prefrontal cortex transcranial direct current stimulation (DLPF-tDCS) on Coma Recovery Scale-Revised (CRS-R) scores in severely brain-damaged patients with disorders of consciousness. METHODS In a double-blind sham-controlled crossover design, anodal and sham tDCS were delivered in randomized order over the left DLPF cortex for 20 minutes...
متن کاملWillful Modulation of Brain Activity in Disorders of Consciousness
To the Editor: The report by Monti et al. (Feb. 18 issue)1 has raised concern worldwide among relatives of patients in a persistent vegetative state. Could their loved ones be conscious after all? However, in addressing such concerns, perhaps the mechanism of brain injury should be considered. It is worthwhile noting that all five patients who were in a vegetative or minimally conscious state a...
