Clinical trials

This project protocol investigates the efficacy of transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) in treating neuropathic pain and improving sleep quality among Brazilian military personnel. Given the high prevalence of chronic pain and sleep disturbances in this population, and the limitations of current pharmacological treatments, our randomized, triple-blinded, sham-controlled trial explores the potential of tDCS as a non-invasive therapeutic intervention. The results of this study could have a significant impact on improving the well-being and performance of military personnel, while also reducing healthcare costs associated with long-term medication use.
