Clinical Trial Summary

A study to determine if transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS, the device that regulates brain activity, can improve pain in people with neuropathic facial pain and compare which modality (inhibitory tDCS over the somatosensory cortex or excitatory tDCS over the motor cortex) can result in better pain-relief.)


Clinical Trial Description

This is a pilot study designed to collect preliminary data on safety and efficacy of transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS)to relieve pain in subjects with neuropathic facial pain,and to compare two pain-treatment tDCS modalities: inhibitory tDCS stimulation over the somatosensory cortex and excitatory tDCS over the motor cortex. ;


Study Design

Allocation: Randomized, Endpoint Classification: Efficacy Study, Intervention Model: Parallel Assignment, Masking: Double Blind (Subject, Investigator), Primary Purpose: Treatment
