Feasibility of home-based transcranial direct current stimulation combined with personalized word retrieval for improving naming in primary progressive aphasia

Our case series demonstrates that home-based tDCS added to SLT is feasible for patients with PPA. However, larger controlled studies are required to confirm its effectiveness in slowing language decline and to fully determine the benefits of this approach. This approach not only facilitates broader access to participation but also enables the extended treatment necessary to evaluate its clinical benefits, moving this treatment closer to clinical availability as a telehealth treatment.

Abstract

Our case series demonstrates that home-based tDCS added to SLT is feasible for patients with PPA. However, larger controlled studies are required to confirm its effectiveness in slowing language decline and to fully determine the benefits of this approach. This approach not only facilitates broader access to participation but also enables the extended treatment necessary to evaluate its clinical benefits, moving this treatment closer to clinical availability as a telehealth treatment.
