Transcranial Direct Current Stimulation Combined With Cognitive Training In Opioid Use Disorder

ClinicalTrials.gov · COMPLETED, 2020

38 participants

Abstract

The aim of the present study is to investigate the effect of prefrontal transcranial Direct Current Stimulation (tDCS) combined with cognitive training on cognitive functions in individuals with Opioid Use Disorder (OUD). The participants will be allocated into active/sham groups (1:1) and will receive a single session of prefrontal tDCS combined with cognitive training. Outcomes of the active and sham groups will be compared.

Conditions: Opioid Use Disorder.

Primary outcome: Changes in the Iowa Gambling Task net score; Changes in the Adjusted Number of Pumps in the Balloon Analogue Risk Task.

Enrollment: 38 participants.

How strong is the evidence?

Evidence Hub reads this as a clinical trial, done in people. Its evidence level is 3 of 5 (Moderate · trial / cohort / secondary analysis). Trials without a large randomized design, cohorts and secondary analyses give moderate evidence. Reported size: 38 participants or records.

How the five levels of evidence work. The level is assigned automatically from the abstract and can be wrong, so check the paper.
