Epidural Cortical Stimulation as Adjunctive Treatment for Nonfluent Aphasia: Phase 1 Clinical Trial Follow-up Findings

Conclusions. Improvements were generally maintained for at least 12 weeks posttreatment and possibly as long as 21 months posttreatment. Epidural CS is a potentially safe, feasible adjunctive intervention for persons with chronic nonfluent aphasia that spares the ventral premotor cortex and warrants further investigation.
