No results posted yet for this study

Summary

The purpose of this study is to investigate the short and long term clinical and cognitive effects of repetitive Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (rTMS) at 5 Hz and/or 10 Hz frequencies on the left dorsolateral prefrontal cortex in cocaine dependent patients and to examine possible changes in brain structure and functional connectivity associated with this intervention.

Conditions

  • Cocaine-Related Disorders

Interventions

DEVICE

Repetitive Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation

The investigators will use a Magpro R-30 MagVenture quick stimulator, equipped with an 8-reel, 75 mm internal diameter in each spiral. Each patient will receive consistent treatment in 2 sessions a day for 10 consecutive business days in the first two weeks, then receive 2 weekly sessions, until the year of treatment is completed. Each session will consist of the application of 30 trains of 10 seconds duration separated by intervals of one minute, at a fixed frequency (5Hz or 10Hz), to 100% of the motor threshold.

DEVICE

Repetitive Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (Sham)

The investigators will use a Magpro R-30 MagVenture quick stimulator, equipped with an 8-reel, 75 mm internal diameter in each spiral with a coil that allows simulated stimulation (Coil AP). This condition will only last two weeks.
