Experimental study of transcranial pulsed current stimulation on relieving athlete's mental fatigue.

ABSTRACT:

Objective

To explore the effect of independently developed transcranial pulsed current stimulation (tPCS) on alleviating athlete's mental fatigue.

Methods

A total of 60 college athletes were randomly divided into the active stimulation group (current intensity:1.5 mA, lasting for 15 min) and the sham stimulation group. Subjective questionnaires, behavior test, and functional near-infrared spectroscopy (fNIRS) test were conducted before and after the experiment. Two-way ANOVA with repeated measures was used to compare the differences in mental fatigue indexes before and after the two experimental conditions.

Results

After 7 days of exercise training, there was a significant difference in the main effect of the time factor in all indexes of the two groups (p < 0.
