Abstract

Abstract:

Central post-stroke pain (CPSP) is an unpleasant emotional subjective sensation that is mainly manifested as continuous or paroxysmal pain, as well as provoked pain after stimulation of the affected limb. CPSP seriously affects the overall functional recovery and quality of life of patients during rehabilitation. At present, antidepressants and anticonvulsants are often used in clinical practice to treat CPSP, with good therapeutic effects. However, long-term use of drugs can easily lead to dependence and adverse reactions, and repeated transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) has a certain improvement effect on CPSP. This article reviews the research progress of rTMS in CPSP, in order to provide relevant theoretical basis for the rehabilitation treatment of stroke patients.
