Type of anatomical site targetted by the brain stimulation

2016-12-20

Brain stimulation can influence the performance at certain tasks, when applied in visual or motor areas for example (specify the target site in the UDE BrnStimAnatTargTyp). Possible brain stimulation types include but are not restricted to: Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation, continuous Theta Burst Stimulation, Deep Brain Stimulation, Transcranial Direct Current Stimulation. Ideally, researchers should input the parameters of the stimulation method if these are not commonly used (i.e. number of pulses, burst frequency etc...) in the free form UDE BrnStimParTyp. The UDE BrnStimInd reflects the moment of data acquisition relative to the brain stimulation, if no stimulation was implement, select the permissible value "No stimulation" and leave other BrnStim UDEs blank. BrnStimMinRelOnsetCt: Time of data acquisition relative to the brain stimulation onset. Number of minutes afer the start of brain stimuation if BrnStimInd is "Post-Stimulation". Number of minutes before the start of brain stimulation if BrnStimInd is "Pre-stimulation". If BrnStimInd is "Online", specify "0" for BrnStimMinRelStimOnsetCt.
