RESULTS TMS FOR STROKE

WHAT IS THE RESULT OF TMS TREATMENT FOR PATIENTS THAT SUFFER FROM THE COGNITIVE, EMOTIONAL, AND PHYSICAL DEFICITS OF A STROKE?

Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation together with neurological rehabilitation can achieve a 12% to 15% improvement in motor function.

WHAT ARE THE ADVANTAGES TO TMS FOR STROKE?

The process has many distinct advantages:

  • Improves motor function in paretic limbs of patients suffering from mild or moderate motor deficit
  • Improves motor function in patients with total paralysis of the affected limb
  • Improves muscle strength of affected muscles
  • Improves performance and motor control of the affected extremity in activities such as: bi manuals, gait, balance and functional movements of daily life
  • TMS is not time dependent; positive changes in motor function have been observed in patients with deficits immediately after and years after the stroke
  • TMS is preformed as an outpatient treatment without hospitalization
  • The patient is always awake during the treatment
  • The treatment has no significant side effects
  • The patient can talk, listen to music or relax and sleep
  • TMS is noninvasive; it is effective and safe
  • The treatment does not require that the patient receive anesthesia
  • The improvement in the patient can be very fast
