Summary

This feasibility study investigates effects of EEG-based low frequency, low emission magnetic cortical stimulation in comparison to a sham treatment in subjects with moderate to severe depressive disorder.

Conditions

  • Major Depressive Disorder (MDD)

Interventions

DEVICE

NeoSync EEG Synchronization Therapy

Generate low-energy sinusoidal magnetic field above the scalp with frequency equal to the subject's intrinsic alpha frequency (IAF). Treatment is 30 minutes, administered 5 days per week for 4 weeks.

DEVICE

Sham NeoSync EEG Synchronization Therapy

A device that looks and sounds similar to the active treatment, but no magnetic field is generated.
