Impact of nrTMS Therapy on the Progress of Neurorehabilitation

Study Description
Brief Summary:
Low-frequency navigated repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (nrTMS) of the non-damaged hemisphere to increase cortical excitability of the damaged hemisphere and to reduce the increased neuronal inhibition in patients suffering from new surgery-related paresis after brain tumor resection

Condition or disease Intervention/treatment Phase
Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation, Repetitive Device: navigated repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation Procedure: physical therapy Not Applicable

Detailed Description:

Postoperative loss of motor function greatly impairs the patients' quality of life and life expectancy of patients with brain tumors is significant limited. Hence the reduction of time spent on neurorehabilitation is very important.

Inclusion of patients that underwent brain tumor resection with a surgery-related paresis of the upper extremity.

Randomized controlled and double blinded trial - 2/3 nrTMS, 1/3 sham. Fifteen minutes low-frequency nrTMS (1 Hz) of the uneffected hemisphere at 7 consecutive days: nrTMS group or sham group. Thirty minutes physical therapy of the upper extremity in both groups.

MRI, nTMS motor mapping, assessments for motor status of upper extremity including Fugl-Meyer-Assessment (FMA), National Institution of Health Stroke Scale (NIHSS), Jebsen Taylor Hand Function Test (JTHFT), Nine Hole Peg Test (NHPT), and Karnofsky Performance Scale (KPS) postoperatively, after the 7th day of intervention and after 3 months.

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcome Measures :
  1. Change of Fugl-Meyer Assessment (FMA) [ Time Frame: Between first day of intervention and 3-months follow up ]
    Assessment upper extremity


Secondary Outcome Measures :
  1. Nine Hole Peg Test (NHPT) [ Time Frame: First day of intervention = postoperatively, after the 7th day of intervention and after 3 months ]
    Fine motor skills upper extremity

  2. National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale (NIHSS) [ Time Frame: First day of intervention = postoperatively, after the 7th day of intervention and after 3 months ]
    The scale measures neurological outcome; Total score is reported; Scores on the NIHSS range from 0 to 42, with higher scores indicating more severe disability

  3. Jebsen Taylor Hand Function Test (JTHFT) [ Time Frame: First day of intervention = postoperatively, after the 7th day of intervention and after 3 months ]
    Functionality upper extremity

  4. Karnofsky Performance Status (KPS) [ Time Frame: First day of intervention = postoperatively, after the 7th day of intervention and after 3 months ]
    The scale measures general oncological outcome; the total score is reported; Scores on the KPS scale range from 0% to 100%, with higher scores indicating less disability and and better quality of life in cancer patients
