OBJECTIVE To examine the efficacy of transcranial electrical stimulation a non-invasive method of reducing pain. DESIGN A randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial. SUBJECTS A total of 119 patients with chronic pain. METHODS Patients were treated with either transcranial electrical stimulation or an active placebo device. Short- and long-term follow-ups were evaluated for treatme...

Migraine is a common neurological disorder with strong links to vision. Interictal migraine thought be characterised by internal noise in the brain, possibly due increased variability neural firing, which can estimated using equivalent tasks. High-frequency transcranial random stimulation (hf-tRNS) used modulate levels of and so presents possible therapy redress brain. This case-control study 2...

OBJECTIVE During transcranial electrical stimulation, current passage across the scalp generates voltage across the scalp surface. The goal was to characterize these scalp voltages for the purpose of validating subject-specific finite element method (FEM) models of current flow. APPROACH Using a recording electrode array, we mapped skin voltages resulting from low-intensity transcranial elect...

results in the control group, barthel and fugl-meyer indices showed significant improvement (p = 0.01, p = 0.00), while in the experimental group, significant improvement in barthel and fugl-meyer indices and dynamometers has been observed (p = 0.01, p = 0.00, p = 0.007). conclusions rtms can improve hand muscle force and functions of patients with chronic hemiplegia, while conventional treatme...

Description of Procedure or Service A variety of non-pharmacological treatments are being evaluated to improve the subjective symptoms of tinnitus. These approaches include use of tinnitus maskers, electrical stimulation, transmeatal laser irradiation, electromagnetic energy, tinnitus-retraining therapy, tinnitus coping therapy, transcranial magnetic stimulation, transcutaneous electrical stimu...

DESCRIPTION A variety of non-pharmacologic treatments are being evaluated to improve the subjective symptoms of tinnitus. These approaches include use of tinnitus maskers, electrical stimulation, transmeatal laser irradiation, electromagnetic energy, tinnitus-retraining therapy, cognitive and behavioral therapies, transcranial magnetic stimulation, transcutaneous electrical stimulation, sound t...

Objective: In the present study, we investigated efficacy of transcranial random noise stimulation (tRNS) combined with an exergame training (physical exercise a videogame) chosen as potential techniques to boost brain functioning and promote plastic effects in healthy young adults. The aim was improve motor response speed time when inhibition required. Method: Forty-nine participants were rand...
