Abstract

Objective: To verify in the literature the purpose of using non-invasive transcranial magnetic stimulation in individuals with cerebral palsy (CP).
Materials and Methods: This study is an integrative review of literature. The data collection was conducted from August to September, 2015, using the electronic data bases Scielo, Medline/PubMed, PEDro and Lilacs. The descriptors and Boolean operators used were congenital hemiplegia OR cerebral palsy AND transcranial magnetic stimulation OR transcranial direct current stimulation. The sample included papers published between 2005 and 2015, written in English, Spanish and Portuguese.
Results: The research on the data bases resulted in 214 papers, from which 12 fulfilled the established criteria. The highest number of publications that composed the sample was published between the years of 2013 and 2015. Eight (8) studies used transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) for carrying out the diagnosis, cortical mapping, and evaluating hand function, and four (4) used transcranial direct current stimulation (TDCS) and verified its effects on dystonia and gait of individuals with CP. In relation to the treatment of individuals with CP, studies showed important results in the use of transcranial stimulation, especially when associated with physiotherapy.
Conclusion: This study showed that non-invasive transcranial stimulation, through TMS and TDCS has been used in CP with the purpose of treating and diagnosing.
