About This Stroke Study in Dallas

The goal of this phase I/II clinical trial is to determine the behavioral and neural effects of 5-daily transcranial direct current stimulation on post-stroke fatigue. The three aims are: Aim 1: Investigate the behavioral effect of 5 daily sessions of anodal tDCS over the ipsilesional M1 on PSF. Aim 2: Investigate the neurophysiological effect of 5 daily sessions of anodal tDCS over the ipsilesional M1. Aim 3: Determine the relationship between changes in M1 excitability, brain connectivity and changes in PSF. Participants will receive either a real or sham stimulation for 5 consecutive days and fatigue will be assessed before, immediately after and 1-month after the intervention. Fatigue will be assessed using clinical, behavioral, and neurophysiological outcomes.
