Investigating the Impact of Targeted High-definition Tdcs on Reducing Upper Limb Motor Impairments in Chronic Stroke 4225

Thursday, October 30, 2025
11:00 AM - 11:15 AM  
Location:  ROOM: Waldorf Room >>> DIRECTIONS: Third Floor >>> From the Main Elevator Bank, proceed left. Waldorf is the first room on your left.
This session explores the potential benefits of Targeted High-Definition Transcranial Direct Current Stimulation (THD-tDCS) in upper limb rehabilitation for chronic stroke patients. A randomized, sham-controlled study with four intervention types (Anodal, Cathodal, Bilateral, and Sham) will be presented, focusing on changes in TMS-induced MEP latency, FM-UE, and MAS scores. Findings suggest that THD-tDCS may enhance motor function recovery, with individualized responses to treatment.

Learning Objectives:

  • Upon completion, participant will be able to describe the potential benefits of High-Definition Transcranial Direct Current Stimulation (HD-tDCS) in upper extremities rehabilitation for chronic stroke patients
  • Upon completion, participant will be able to assess upper limb motor recovery using key clinical outcomes and changes in TMS-induced MEP latency in the ipsilesional M1
  • Upon completion, participant will be able to understand the mechanism of HD-tDCS on improving motor recovery in stroke
