Home-based tDCS for schizophrenia: Exploring the feasibility of a standard operating procedure.

September 2024
Department of Psychiatry, National Institute of Mental Health and Neuro Sciences (NIMHANS), Bengaluru, Karnataka, India.
Article Synopsis
- Transcranial Direct Current Stimulation (tDCS) is a noninvasive brain stimulation method that shows promise in helping individuals with schizophrenia manage auditory verbal hallucinations (AVH).
- Traditional in-clinic tDCS requires frequent visits due to its short-lived effects, but home-based tDCS could provide a more accessible solution if safety and standardization measures are implemented.
- A case study demonstrated successful administration of tDCS at home with proper caregiver training and a standard operating procedure (SOP), leading to sustained improvements in AVH over ten days without adverse effects.
