Study Summary

The goal is to investigate the effects of non-invasive transcranial electrical stimulation on cognition in MS.

Primary Outcome

Symbol Digit Modalities Test (SDMT) score will be used to measure processing speed. SDMT measures the time to pair abstract symbols with specific numbers. The test requires visuoperceptual processing, working memory, and psychomotor speed. The score is the number of correctly coded items in 90 seconds. (max=110, min=0). Higher scores indicate improvement. Lower scores indicate worsening.

Interventions

  • DEVICE non-invasive transcranial electrical stimulation
