暂无简介。

•1. Adults (>18 years old) with single first ever hemispheric ischaemic stroke verified by brain imaging, within the last 12 months
•2. Moderate upper limb weakness and/or reduced function
•Fugl-Meyer upper limb score 25-52/66
•3. Discharged from inpatient physiotherapy program
•4. Previously independent (prior to stroke)

•1. Significant medical co-morbidities that would reduce exercise tolerance and rehabilitation potential such as heart failure, unstable angina, etc
•2. Significant psychiatric co-morbidities, such as depression or anxiety
•3. History of seizures, epilepsy or unexplained syncopal episodes
•4. Cognitive impairment or receptive dysphasia (except if minimal)
•5. Significant shoulder pain or arthritis, injury or fixed deformity of the affected limb
•6. Presence of magnetically or electrically sensitive implants such as cardiac pacemakers, stimulators, pumps, cochlear implants, etc
•7. To minimise potential risks, all participants will be thoroughly screened for tDCS/TMS risk factors twice: prior to enrolment and immediately prior to the experimental session
