tDCS brain stimulation for motor conversion symptoms
Part of Mental health clinical trials.
This study tests whether a noninvasive brain stimulation method (tDCS placed on the side front brain area) can improve symptoms in people with motor conversion disorder. It aims to see if symptoms improve over a 6-month follow-up period.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You must be able to give signed informed consent and be able to understand the study.
- You must be between 18 and 65 years old.
- You must be hospitalized or regularly seen in clinic, and able to return for follow-ups for 6 months.
- You likely have conversion disorder with motor symptoms (like weakness or paralysis) that have lasted more than 10 days.
- Your initial disability/motor score must meet their minimum levels (EDSS 3+ or WHO score 2+).
- You must not be in another treatment trial at the same time.

This study tests whether a type of non-invasive brain stimulation called high-definition transcranial direct current stimulation (HD-tDCS) can improve motor function in healthy adults. If you are right-handed, in good health, and have no neurological or major medical conditions, you may be eligible.
This trial tests a non-invasive brain stimulation technique called transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) to see if it can improve motor function in people with Parkinson's disease. The treatment uses mild electrical currents applied to the scalp to stimulate brain areas involved in movement.
This trial tests a gentle, non-invasive brain stimulation treatment (called tDCS) for adults with depression. It uses a mild electrical current on the scalp to help improve mood and thinking.
This study tests whether a non-surgical brain stimulation called tDCS can improve “executive function,” which means skills like planning, focus, and decision-making. It is designed for people with several mental health and substance-use conditions, and it may help you if those skills are affected by your diagnosis.
This study tests whether a non-invasive brain stimulation technique applied to the back of your brain (cerebellum) can help improve movement and balance in people with mild to moderate Parkinson's disease. The treatment uses a small electrical current to stimulate brain activity.
This study tests a stronger, faster type of brain stimulation (called tDCS) to see if it can help treat depression. It may be a good fit if you have major depression and haven't used other brain stimulation in the past 6 months.
