Trial summary

Subjects participate in a motor learning training with a special bicycle. The experimental group proceed with 15 minutes of physical training with the bicycle and 15 minutes of rest where they use motor imaginary. The control group proceed equal except for the motor imaginary intervention. Read more about this study

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • Motor imaginaryOther

    Participants imagine doing a motor task watching a video recording

  • Non Motor imaginaryOther

    Participants watch a television documentary

  • tDCSOther

    transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) stimulation during 20 minutes in the motor cortex (bilaterally) at 1mA of intensity.

  • tDCS shamOther

    tDCS stimulation during 30 seconds in the motor cortex (bilaterally) at 1mA of intensity and then 19 minutes and 30 seconds without any stimulation.

  • NeurofeedbackOther

    EEG monitoring of the cerebral cortex in real time with positive feedback in the computer screen when participants motor cortex is activated. The positive feedback consist in an object that moves to the top of the screen when activation occurs in the motor cortex. This task last during 20 minutes.

  • Neurofeedback shamOther

    EEG monitoring of the cerebral cortex in real time with randomized feedback in the computer screen despite motor cortex activation. The positive feedback consist in an object that moves to the top of the screen in a randomized time. This task last during 20 minutes.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Motor imaginary, Non Motor imaginary and tDCS in people with Learning Disturbance, run by Centro Universitario La Salle at 1 site in Spain.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 2 inclusion and 3 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 31 Jul 2018. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in Spain. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. Some participants in this study may receive a placebo. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Contact Daniel Muñoz, PhD (91401970 ext. 309, daniel.munoz@lasallecampus.es), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Time (time frame: immediately during the intervention). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT02999516, which also lists 1 linked publication.

Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 31 Jul 2018.
