U.S., Sept. 22 -- ClinicalTrials.gov registry received information related to the study (NCT07831629) titled 'Clinical and Hemodynamic Correlates of Different Polarities of HD-tDCS in COPD' on April 01, 2024.
Brief Summary: The aim of this pilot randomized clinical trial is to identify the acute effects of HD-tDCS in the diaphragm cortex on cerebral hemodynamics in individuals with COPD.
The main questions to answer are:
Is there a change in cortical metabolism (HbO and OXYHb consumption) during and immediately after the application of HD-tDCS? Are there any particularities in cortical hemodynamics between the different HD-tDCS polarities? Participants will perform three HD-tDCS sessions, each one with a different type of stimulation (an...
