Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Changes in cortical activation

    changes in cortical activation is measured by functional Near-Infrared-Spectroscopy (fNIRS) (NIRScout, NIRx, Germany) during treadmill gait.

    Change from baseline (before stimulation) after stimulation during 30 min

Secondary Outcomes (4)

  • 10 meter walk test (10MWT)

    Before stimulation (baseline); After strimulation during 30 min

  • Timed Up and Go test (TUG)

    Before stimulation (baseline); After strimulation during 30 min

  • Gait analysis using surface electromyograph

    Before stimulation (baseline); After strimulation during 30 min

  • Gait analysis using motion analysis system

    Before stimulation (baseline); After strimulation during 30 min

Study Arms (2)

Individualized stimulation group

EXPERIMENTAL

Based on transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) simulation, individualized stimulation on leg motor areas during 30 minutes.

Device: Individualized transcranial direct current stimulation

Conventional stimulation group

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

Conventional stimulation on leg motor areas during 30 minutes.

Device: Conventional transcranial direct current stimulation

Interventions

Based on tDCS stimulation, individualized stimulation during 30 minutes with sitting position.

Individualized stimulation group

Conventional tDCS stimulation during 30 minutes with sitting position.

Conventional stimulation group
