dc.description.abstract | Transcranial direct-current stimulation (tDCS) has previously demonstrated promising effects in improving surgical performance with motor region stimulation [1], [2], [3], [4]. However, extensive prior research has revealed an important role of the prefrontal cortex in surgical skill development [5,6]. This article presents the data of a double-blind randomized sham-controlled trial investigating the effect of prefrontal tDCS on knot-tying performance [7]. Data was collected from an active (<i>n</i> = 20) and sham (<i>n</i> = 20) group across three blocks: pre-, online- (during) and post-tDCS. Group and block differences of knot-tying performance were analyzed using a Generalized linear mixed model and supported with a Friedman's test. Further sub-analyses were conducted to compare high vs. low skilled individuals and initial vs. last knots. Subjective workload was assessed after each block using a SURG-TLX questionnaire and side-effects of the tDCS block were recorded using an additional survey. | |
