Clinical trials

The purpose of this randomized controlled trial is to investigate the non-inferiority, and possible superiority, of a high-dose home-based tDCS protocol compared with a conventional home-based protocol, and to assess its cost-effectiveness, in patients with fibromyalgia. As complementary goals, we aim to assess the predictive value of baseline EEG for clinical response to high-dose home-based tDCS treatment; and to describe the effectiveness of a high-dose home-based protocol applied to the motor cortex (M1) versus the dorsolateral prefrontal cortex (DLFPC) in patients with fibromyalgia.

The purpose of this randomized controlled trial is to investigate the non-inferiority, and possible superiority, of a high-dose home-based tDCS protocol compared with a conventional home-based protocol, and to assess its cost-effectiveness, in patients with major depression. As a secondary aim, we aim to assess the predictive value of baseline EEG for clinical response to high-dose home-based tDCS treatment in patients with major depression.

The purpose of this multicentric randomized controlled trial is to compare the effectiveness and safety of home-based tDCS for the treatment of major depression versus tDCS treatment in a healthcare centre, and explore the effects of an accelerated home-tDCS protocol. The change in depression index at the end of treatment, measured with MADRS, will be the primary outcome.
