Application of tRNS to improve Multiple Sclerosis Fatigue: a sham-controlled study
Background and aims: Fatigue is one of the most common, early, and disabling symptom in Multiple Sclerosis (MS). tDCS on Dorso-Lateral Prefrontal Cortex seems to give positive results on MS fatigue. Recently, a new stimulation protocol, transcranial Random Noise Stimulation (tRNS), showed powerful facilitatory effects on motor cortex in healthy subjects and ameliorated pain in MS patients. Here we aimed to explore effects of motor cortex tRNS in MS fatigue.Methods: 13 MS fatigued patients were enrolled in a blind, sham controlled tRNS study. 7 patients received 1.5 mA, 101-640 Hz tRNS stimulation and 6 patient received sham stimulation, both stimulations applied daily over M1 for 15 minutes…
