The Impact of Stimulation Parameters on Cardiovascular Outcomes in Chronic Stroke Patients Following Transcranial Direct Current Stimulation—A Pilot Controlled, Randomized, Double-Blind Crossover Trial
Participants with right-hemisphere lesions exhibited superior global sympathetic autonomic nervous system activity. When the tDCS was applied on the left hemisphere, it maintained lower sympathovagal balance values and improved functional capacity regardless of the hemisphere affected by the stroke.
