Transcranial Direct Current Stimulation for Depression in Alzheimer's Disease Patient - Preliminary Research (ADAPT)

Ameliorating Depression in Alzheimer's Disease Patients by Transcranial Direct Current Stimulation (ADAPT) - Preliminary Research

This project will investigate the safety and efficacy of transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) in the treatment of depression among patients with Alzheimer's disease. The investigators aim to ameliorate depressive symptoms among patient with Alzheimer's disease, by anodal stimulation on left dorsolateral prefrontal cortex and cathodal suppression on right supraorbital area. Active stimulation will be compare to sham condition in 20 patients (10 in each groups).

研究概览

详细说明

This project will investigate the safety and efficacy of transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) in the treatment of depression among patients with Alzheimer's disease. tDCS causes an excitatory effect on the anode side and suppressing effect on the cathode side through sculp with very week currents (2 mA in this project). The investigators aim to ameliorate depressive symptoms among patient with Alzheimer's disease, by anodal stimulation on left dorsolateral prefrontal cortex and cathodal suppression on right supraorbital area. Active stimulation will be compare to sham condition in 20 patients (10 in each groups) from outpatient clinic in National Center of Neurology and Psychiatry, Japan.

  3. Participants who have been on fixed dose (including participants without any prescription) of antidepressants for at least two weeks on the screening visit.
  4. Participants who have been on fixed dose (including participants not prescribed) of antidementia drugs (donepezil, rivastigmine, galantamine, and memantine) for at least for weeks on the screening visit.
  5. Ambulatory participants with or without any aiding device
  6. Participants who have one caregiver, who must live with the patient at least ten hours a week and must report the patient's behavior.
  7. A study partner who can report how the participant is doing is needed.
