Features of speech reha­bilitation in various types of post-stroke dysa­rthria. S.S. Korsakov Journal of Neurology and Psychiatry. 2025;(8-2):61-66
Abstract:

Over the past decade, non-invasive brain stimulation, in particular transcranial stimulation by direct electric current (TES), has been increasingly included in the array of methods used for rehabilitation of patients with post-stroke impairments (motor, speech, cognitive). Development of stimulation protocols with determination of the zones of exposure, as well as better understanding of the patterns of restoration of functional systems, became possible due to basic research using functional MRI paradigm. However, the complexity of the organization of the speech system, the variety of forms of aphasia that occur when it is damaged, the individual variability of neuroplastic processes, motivated a search for optimal stimulation protocols that contribute to the personification of the rehabilitation process. Portability, low cost of equipment, a good safety and tolerance profile, as well as a proven effect on neuroplasticity processes, are the undoubted advantages of TES-therapy. There is reason to believe that further study and clinical testing of this technique will turn it into the promising tool for enhancing the effectiveness of classical speech therapy approaches in patients with post-stroke aphasia.
