The study aims at investigating if tDCS applied to left DLPFC or to right OFC to treatment as usual is effective in reducing severe suicidal ideas in major depressive episode.
Engage for Late-Life Depression and Comorbid Executive Dysfunction
Although there are an increasing number of mental health treatment adaptations for older adults, there are still a number of factors to consider when making these adaptations. Cognitive decline is one such factor that places significant burden on older adults and can interfere with traditional mental health therapies. Engage is …
Comparing Uni- and Bi-lateral TBS in Major Depression
Repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) is a Health Canada approved treatment for major depression. Theta burst stimulation (TBS) is a very promising new treatment for major depression that allows a 15-fold reduction in duration of daily sessions. However, no large scale naturalistic study has assessed the superiority of bilateral TBS …
Reversal of Opioid-induced Respiratory Depression With Opioid Antagonists
In this pharmacokinetic/pharmacodynamic modelling study we will determine the ability of intranasal and intramuscular naloxone to reverse opioid (fentanyl and sufentanil)- induced respiratory depression in healthy volunteers and chronic opioid users to develop dosing recommendations in case of opioid-induced respiratory depression from an opioid overdose in clinical practice and in …
Schema Therapy for Patients With Chronic Treatment Resistant Depression
The goal of this clinical study is to test a particular form of psychotherapy, called schema therapy, for people with difficult-to-treat depression (when depression is very lengthy or difficult to cure with antidepressive medication). Researchers will compare the group of participants receiving schema therapy to a group receiving standard psychotherapeutic …
