NCT01325831 · Status: COMPLETED · Phase: PHASE4 · Type: INTERVENTIONAL · Enrollment: 44

Summary

In order to explore the effect of repetitive TMS, which has shown to be effective in intractable depression, we will examine resting-state, default-mode network functional connectivity in patients with major depression. We will use a double-blind, sham-controlled design. Our target sample size is 60(30 patients will be treated by active rTMS, the other 30 will be treated by sham rTMS). We will apply 10-day course of 10 Hz rTMS on left dorsolateral prefrontal cortex of the subjects.
