Settings for real Transcranial Direct Current Stimulation (tDCS) and sham tDCS
| Real tDCS | Sham tDCS | |
|---|---|---|
| Current | 2 mA | 1 mA |
| Fade in/out | 10 s | 10 s |
| Duration | 1200 s | 10 s |
The settings of tDCS are chosen so the patient would not notice a difference and they are blinded for the fact that they are randomised in the placebo or the real treatment group
