The goal of this study is to establish the feasibility, tolerability, and preliminary efficacy of sleep-state transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) for enhancing plasticity in depression treatment.
Transcranial Direct Current Stimulation for Depression
Background Depression is a common mental disorder characterized by persistent low mood and anhedonia. Pharmacological and psychotherapeutic treatments demonstrate only moderate efficacy. Non-invasive brain stimulation techniques offer novel therapeutic approaches. Among these, transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) holds advantages due to its simplicity, low cost, and minimal side effects, exhibiting …
Prospective Cohort Study of Response and Tolerability of Accelerated Intermittent Theta-burst Stimulation (1W-AiTBS)
Intermittent theta-burst stimulation (iTBS), a variant of repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS), is a well-documented treatment for depression. The aim of this study is to evaluate the effectiveness of an accelerated iTBS protocol (1W-AiTBS) in routine clinical practice. In the accelerated protocol, patients receive 600 pulses per session, for a …
Digitally Enhanced Stepped-Care for Depression in Primary Care
