Official Title: Higher, Faster, Better: Is an Accelerated Intermittent Theta Burst Stimulation Protocol Compared to Standard 10 Hz Repetitive Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation, More (Cost-) Effective in Patients With
Brief Summary:
INTRODUCTION Recent findings from three small studies (total n=59) suggest that three changes in repetitive Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (rTMS) protocols, called the Stanford Neuromodulation Therapy (SNT) protocol, contribute to extreme high overall remission of 79% in patients with treatment resistant depression (TRD), whereas remission using a standard 10 Hz rTMS protocol is 25%.The improvement using the SNT protocol is achieved by combining 1) accelerated treatment with multiple sessions per day, 2)…
