Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

20 healthy subjects will be split into 4 groups. Each group will receive one of the following tDCS montages : anodal, bilateral, cathodal or placebo Subjects will receive 2mA for 20 mins of their attributed tDCS. The evaluation is a maximal strength test measured with the IOPI and will take place prior to, immediately following and 30 minutes after stimulation

Study Groups

Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.

Anodal

Anode placer over the affected primary motor cortex, cathode over contralateral supra orbital area. 2 mA, 20min stimulation

Group Type EXPERIMENTAL

Transcranial Direct Current Stimulation

Intervention Type DEVICE

Subjects received a micro-current through their scalp to induce cortical and subcortical changes

Bilateral

Anode placer over the affected primary motor cortex, cathode over unaffected motor cortex. 2 mA, 20min stimulation

Group Type EXPERIMENTAL

Transcranial Direct Current Stimulation

Intervention Type DEVICE

Subjects received a micro-current through their scalp to induce cortical and subcortical changes

Cathodal

Cathode placer over the unaffected primary motor cortex, anode over contralateral supra orbital area. 2 mA, 20min stimulation

Group Type EXPERIMENTAL

Transcranial Direct Current Stimulation

Intervention Type DEVICE

Subjects received a micro-current through their scalp to induce cortical and subcortical changes

Placebo

anode montage but current is ramped up over 15 secondes, then ramped down. 2 mA, 20min stimulation

Group Type PLACEBO_COMPARATOR

Transcranial Direct Current Stimulation

Intervention Type DEVICE

Subjects received a micro-current through their scalp to induce cortical and subcortical changes
