Study Summary
Individuals who experienced a stroke over one year ago will be randomly assigned to receive 1 of 4 different conditions of brain stimulation. All individuals will receive therapy of the hand and arm following the stimulation. This study will try to determine which brain stimulation condition leads to the greatest improvement in hand and arm function.
Primary Outcome
This provides a quantitative measure of motor recovery, balance, sensation, coordination, and speed. An increase in score indicates an improvement in function.
Interventions
- DEVICE transcranial direct current stimulation
- BEHAVIORAL intensive upper extremity motor training
