Conscious but Unable to Communicate?

7/6/2017

Imagine being conscious but totally paralyzed and stuck in your body, not being able to communicate! This may indeed be the case for thousands of people right now!

​There is an estimated 15,000 to 40,000 people on life-support in the United States and more than 7,000 of these people could be conscious according to a study by Dr. Adrian Owen. 

But the good news is that non-invasive tDCS may literally be a life saver: ​A recent clinical trial suggests that repeated (5 days) left prefrontal tDCS improves the recovery of consciousness in some chronic patients in minimally conscious state (MCS). ​

If adopted as a standard procedure, non-invasive #tDCS technique may be used to identify and save thousands of patients who are in #MCS.
