Neurorehabilitation in spinal cord injury: Increased cortical activity through tDCS and robotic gait training.

Clinical neurophysiology : official journal of the International Federation of Clinical Neurophysiology
OBJECTIVE: This study investigates the neurophysiological outcomes of combining robot-assisted gait training (RAGT) with active transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) on individuals with spinal cord injury (SCI).

Clinical efficacy of NIBS in enhancing neuroplasticity for stroke recovery.

Journal of neuroscience methods
BACKGROUND: For stroke patients, a therapeutic approach named Non-invasive brain stimulation (NIBS) was applied and it has gained attention. This NIBS approach enhances the neuroplasticity and facilitates in functional Stroke Rehabilitation (SR) thro...

Effects of high-definition tDCS targeting individual motor hotspot with EMG-driven robotic hand training on upper extremity motor function: a pilot randomized controlled trial.

Journal of neuroengineering and rehabilitation
BACKGROUND: Delivering HD-tDCS on individual motor hotspot with optimal electric fields could overcome challenges of stroke heterogeneity, potentially facilitating neural activation and improving motor function for stroke survivors. However, the inte...

Simultaneous high-definition transcranial direct current stimulation and robot-assisted gait training in stroke patients.

Scientific reports
This study investigates whether simultaneous high-definition transcranial direct current stimulation (HD-tDCS) enhances the effects of robot-assisted gait training in stroke patients. Twenty-four participants were randomly allocated to either the rob...

Combining Transcranial Direct Current Stimulation With Hand Robotic Rehabilitation in Chronic Stroke Patients: A Double-Blind Randomized Clinical Trial.

American journal of physical medicine & rehabilitation
OBJECTIVE: This study aimed to assess the impact of combining transcranial direct current stimulation with end-effector robot-assisted treatment on upper limb function, spasticity, and hand dexterity in chronic stroke patients.

Effects of robotic therapy associated with noninvasive brain stimulation on motor function in individuals with incomplete spinal cord injury: A systematic review of randomized controlled trials.

The journal of spinal cord medicine
CONTEXT: Motor deficits are among the most common consequences of incomplete spinal cord injury (SCI). These impairments can affect patients' levels of functioning and quality of life. Combined robotic therapy and non-invasive brain stimulation (NIBS...

DeeptDCS: Deep Learning-Based Estimation of Currents Induced During Transcranial Direct Current Stimulation.

IEEE transactions on bio-medical engineering
OBJECTIVE: Transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) is a non-invasive brain stimulation technique used to generate conduction currents in the head and disrupt brain functions. To rapidly evaluate the tDCS-induced current density in near real-ti...

Neuroenhancement of surgeons during robotic suturing.

Surgical endoscopy
BACKGROUND: The initial phases of robotic surgical skills acquisition are associated with poor technical performance, such as low knot-tensile strength (KTS). Transcranial direct-current stimulation (tDCS) can improve force and accuracy in motor task...
