Clinical Trial: Comparison of the Efficacy of Transcranial Direct Current Stimulation at Home Versus in Hospital Settings in Patients With Depressive Episodes

U.S., March 25 -- ClinicalTrials.gov registry received information related to the study (NCT07490379) titled 'Comparison of the Efficacy of Transcranial Direct Current Stimulation at Home Versus in Hospital Settings in Patients With Depressive Episodes' on March 11.

Brief Summary: Transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) is a neuromodulation method that modulates brain activity using low-intensity electrical current. Used in the treatment of depression, it is easily adaptable for both caregivers and patients, with good tolerance, under appropriate supervision.

Allowing patients to perform tDCS at home could address issues of access to care (distance from home, overall cost of care, lack of healthcare professionals, difficulty travel...
