Tibial anterior muscle (TA), a sequel to the stroke, leads to decreased ankle control and consequently decreased postural control. To strengthen this muscle functional electrical stimulation (FES) can be used. It is suggested that the associated direct current brain stimulation (tDCS) may potentiate this effect. Thus, the objective of the study is to evaluate the effects of tDCS on motor …
Participation is the social perspective of functionality, aimed at the performance of the subject in the daily environment for, in fact, be inserted in the social context, considering the environmental and personal factors as facilitators or barriers. It is proven in the literature that there is decline in social participation due to the arising consequences of stroke. However, no study w…
It is suggested that increased cortical activity induced by brain stimulation, associated or not with other physiotherapy techniques, could potentiate the therapeutic effects in patients engines and functional. Objectives: To assess the immediate effects of a session of Transcranial Direct Current Stimulation (tDCS) over the anode primary motor cortex associated with the use of Functional…
