Seizure induced by repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation for central pain: Adapted guidelines for post-stroke patients.
The patient was a 65-year-old woman who had a righthemispheric ischemic stroke (middle cerebral artery territory, see Fig. 1) in September 2015. The etiology of the stroke is still undetermined to this day. Except for the brain lesion, the patient had no risk factor for epilepsy. She had no previous seizure history even during the acute post-stroke phase, nor did she have a family history of ep...
متن کاملNeural correlates of the antinociceptive effects of repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation on central pain after stroke.
BACKGROUND Repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) modulates central neuropathic pain in some patients after stroke, but the mechanisms of action are uncertain. OBJECTIVE . The authors used diffusion tensor imaging (DTI) and functional MRI (fMRI) to evaluate the integrity of the thalamocortical tract (TCT) and the activation pattern of the pain network in 22 patients with poststro...
متن کاملEffects of High-Frequency Repetitive Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation on Motor Functions in Patients with Subcortical Stroke
Background: Motor function impairment occurs in approximately two-thirds of patients with subcortical stroke. Repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) is a noninvasive technique for modulating cortical excitability. Objectives: The present study was designed for assessing the efficacy of high-frequency rTMS (5 Hz) on ipsilesional primary motor cortex in patients with subcortical stro...
متن کاملThe Effect of Repetitive Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation on Postural Stability After Acute Stroke: A Clinical Trial
Introduction: Balance impairment is a common problem and a major cause of motor disability after stroke. Therefore, this study aimed to investigate whether low-frequency repetitive Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (rTMS) improves the postural balance problems in stroke patients. Methods: This randomized double blind clinical trial with 12 weeks follow-up was conducted on stroke patients. Trea...
متن کاملRepetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation for improving function after stroke.
BACKGROUND It had been assumed that suppressing the undamaged contralesional motor cortex by repetitive low-frequency transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) or increasing the excitability of the damaged hemisphere cortex by high-frequency rTMS will promote function recovery after stroke. OBJECTIVES To assess the efficacy and safety of rTMS for improving function in people with stroke. SEA...
