Study Groups
Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.
Anodal tDCS
Participants in the acute post-stroke stage will receive anodal transcranial direct current stimulation
Anodal transcranial direct current stimulation
The active electrode is placed on the affected hemisphere
Cathodal tDCS
Participants in the acute post-stroke stage will receive cathodal transcranial direct current stimulation
Cathodal transcranial direct current stimulation
The active electrode is placed on the unaffected hemisphere
Bilateral tDCS
Participants in the acute post-stroke stage will receive bilateral transcranial direct current stimulation
Bilateral transcranial direct current stimulation
The cathode and anode is positioned as active electrodes on the unaffected and affected hemisphere,respectively.
Sham tDCS
Participants in the acute post-stroke stage will receive sham transcranial direct current stimulation
Sham transcranial direct current stimulation
Placebo stimulation, with emission current by only 30 seconds
