研究概览
简要总结
The purpose of the study is to assess the efficacy and safety of targeting tDCS stimulation for treatment of Refractory status epilepticus
详细描述
After being informed about the study and potential risks, the recruited patients, giving written informed consent, will be determined of the eligibility for study entry. The patients who meet the eligibility requirements will be randomized in a 1:1 ratio to undergo targeting tDCS stimulation (up to 10 times) or sham stimulation.

研究组 & 干预措施
TDCS sham-stimulation group
The duration and frequency of tDCS treatments in the sham-stimulation group are the same as those in the treatment group, but the tDCS device is not active during the 20 minutes of sham-stimulation.
干预措施: TDCS sham-stimulation (Device)
tDCS treatment group
In the real tDCS stimulation group, direct cathodal current at 2 mA was delivered by a tDCS device over the seizure onset zone. Anode was on the contralateral forehead. Treatment was for 20 min, repeated twice in a day, then again over the next few days. The maximum number of stimuli required to terminate the status epilepticus should not exceed 10.
干预措施: tDCS stimulation (Device)
结局指标
主要结局
Number of participants with status epilepticus termination between tDCS treatment group and tDCS sham--stimulation group as assessed by Salzburg Consensus Criteria for Non-Convulsive Status Epilepticus
时间窗: through study completion, an average of 1 year
Outcomes will be assessed by clinical observation and EEG evaluation before 10 times of tDCS stimulation between both groups
次要结局
- Number of participants with treatment-related adverse events between tDCS treatment group and tDCS sham--stimulation group(through study completion, an average of 1 year)
