简要总结
Stroke frequently causes impaired balance, gait dysfunction, cognition and decreased quality of life, all of which limit independence and increase the risk of falls. Conventional physiotherapy alone may not be sufficient to fully restore these functions. Trans cranial direct current stimulation (tdcs), a non-invasive brain stimulation therapy, has been demonstrated to promote neuroplasticity and improve motor rehabilitation. However, the evidence for its usefulness in improving balance, gait, cognition and general quality of life in stroke patients is limited and equivocal. As a result, this study is required to establish the role of tdcs as an adjuvant to rehabilitation for improved functional results.
This study will provide evidence on whether combining tdcs with conventional therapy offers greater improvements in gait, balance, cognition, quality of life in hemiplegic patients, thereby guiding rehabilitation practices and enhancing patient independence and quality of life.
