Description
Summary:Transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) is a noninvasive electrical brain stimulation method and has attracted wide attention in the field of cognitive neuroscience. However, patients may experience varying degrees of adverse events during tDCS treatment, such as slight pruritus, pricking pain, and burning sensation. In order to effectively reduce adverse events, it is necessary to evaluate the safety of tDCS under different conditions. This article reviews the adverse events caused by tDCS and analyzes related causes and methods for avoidance, so as to provide a reference for the development of safety guidelines.
