Abstract

Date Presented 03/27/20

In this study, we will systematically analyze tDCS-based cognitive rehabilitation studies applied to stroke patients in Korea and foreign countries abroad and calculate their effect sizes through meta-analysis. Through this study, tDCS was found to be effective for attention and memory. We have found that the application methods of tDCS differ, suggesting that we need to pay attention to research of formalized tDCS protocols and to foster experts.
