The purpose of this study is to examine the benefits of combining repetitive Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (rTMS) coupled with Cognitive Processing Therapy (CPT) in treating combat-related Posttraumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) symptoms. The study will also examine change in depression, psychosocial functioning, and neurophysiological (i.e., electroencephalography and magnetic resonance images) measures.
This project examines the impact of a healthy lifestyle intervention, specifically designed for adults with posttraumatic stress and identified cardiovascular risks.
The purpose of this study is to test if the combination of ketamine, vs midazolam, with an intensive trauma-focused psychotherapy will be more effective in relieving post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD). This week-long treatment has the potential to produce a significant therapeutic effect that otherwise would take months to occur. The …
Post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) is prevalent and represents a high healthcare burden among Veterans. Repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) is a brain-based therapy that may be effective for treating PTSD. The theorized mechanism of rTMS is enhancement of emotional flexibility via the dorsolateral prefrontal cortex node of the brain's cognitive …
Title: ERG as a potential biomarker of SSRI-responsive PTSD: A pilot study Posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) affects many individuals who experience a traumatic event. Previous studies suggest that there is a connection between the brain and the retina, and that the electroretinogram (ERG) may be a valuable biomarker to tell …
By doing this research project, the investigators hope to learn which strategies work best to help veterans who are not benefiting from their first PTSD treatment or not completing between-session homework assignments regularly that might improve treatment response. The investigators also want to learn how best to match the right …
MAGNETS is a prospective, randomized, parallel-design, sham-controlled clinical trial of accelerated, functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI)-guided intermittent theta burst stimulation (iTBS) to the right dorsolateral prefrontal cortex (dlPFC) for chronic symptoms of posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) in a comorbid Veteran population.
The aim of this study is to assess the psychiatric evaluation of children and adolescents exposed to trauma in the outpatient clinic and to determine the prevalence of PTSD and Complex PTSD (CPTSD) diagnoses. Additionally, it aims to compare the clinical characteristics of children exposed to trauma who do not …
Treatment refractory PTSD is a chronic and debilitating psychiatric disorder associated with high morbidity. Despite advances in neuroimaging, genetics, pharmacology and psychosocial interventions in the last half century, little progress has been made in altering the natural history of the condition or its outcome. This study would be the first …
PTSD occurs in up to 17% of post-9/11 US Service Members and is associated with long-term functional impairment, family problems, unemployment, and suicidality. Trauma-focused therapies (TFTs), such as Prolonged Exposure (PE), result in significant relief for many. Yet, TFTs are not equally effective for everyone. An important minority (\~40%) will …
