Repetitive Versus Deep Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation for Major Depression (NCT05902312)
Comparative Effectiveness of Repetitive Versus Deep Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation for Major Depression: A Randomized Controlled Trial
🩺 Plain-English Summary (8th-Grade Level)
The goal of this randomized controlled trial is to he effectiveness of two different TMS techniques in TRD, repetitive TMS (rTMS) and deep TMS (dTMS). The main questions it aims to answer are: type of study: clinical trial participant population/health conditions : Major Depressive Disorder To assess the superiority of dTMS over rTMS in TRD To evaluate the predictive capacity of scalable candidate biomarkers Participants will be randomly allocated to one of the two intervention groups (rTMS or dTMS).
