Cerebellar TDCS for SRPCS Treatment (NCT04760899)

Bilateral Cerebellar Transcranial Direct Current Stimulation (tDCS) for the Treatment of Sports-Related Post-Concussion Syndrome (SRPCS)

๐Ÿ”ต Active, Not Recruiting Observational / Diagnostic โš™๏ธ Medical Device Protocol Sponsor: University of Iowa

๐Ÿฉบ Plain-English Summary (8th-Grade Level)

This study is investigating the immediate and long-term effects of bilateral cerebellar transcranial direct current stimulation on cognition, balance, and symptom severity in people with sports-related post-concussion syndrome. The central hypothesis is that tDCS will provide improvements in cognitive deficits, balance, and overall symptom attenuation in people with SRPCS both acutely and at 2 and 4 week follow ups. The researchers further hypothesize that cerebellar tDCS will ameliorate the symptoms of people with SRPCS.
