Brief Summary

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

Transcranial Direct Current Stimulation (tDCS) is a neuroregulatory method that delivers a weak straight tendency to neuronal areas with the intention of changing the brain's basic metabolic processes. Degradation of executive performance may not necessarily arise from cathodal stimulation, and vice versa for anodal stimulation.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

Total 48 samples were taken, were randomly allocated into an experimental group of 4 variance of different intensities of tDCS. At F3 and F4, tDCS was applied to the desired region. Electrodes were put in using the 10-20 EEG technique throughout the parietal cortex, with the current electrode being set on F3 area and control electrode being positioned on the F4 area. For 20 minutes over three days per week for up to three weeks, current intensities of 0.5mA for group A, 1.0mA for group B, 1.5mA for group C, and 2.0mA for group D were administered. when engaging in dual-task cognitive processes. The groups are going to receive 9 sessions of tDCS treatment. The MoCA and TMT scale was completed by samples before and after the intervention. Finally, specifics investigation will be carried out using SPSS 26.0 software.

Study Groups

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

Intensities of tDCS and dual task cognitive functions

We have done in a one arm type. The participants are divided into different intensity group (0.5 mA, 1.0 mA, 1.5 mA and 2.0 mA).

Group Type EXPERIMENTAL

tDCS

Intervention Type DEVICE

4 variance of different intensities of tDCS (0.5mA, 1 mA, 1.5mA and 2mA). At F3 and F4, tDCS was applied to the desired region. Electrodes were put in using the 10-20 EEG technique throughout the parietal cortex, with the current electrode being set on F3 area and control electrode being positioned on the F4 area. For 20 minutes over three days per week for up to three weeks, current intensities of 0.5mA for group A, 1.0mA for group B, 1.5mA for group C, and 2.0mA for group D were administered. when engaging in dual-task cognitive processes. The groups are going to receive 9 sessions of tDCS treatment.
