Summary

This study evaluates an accelerated schedule of theta-burst stimulation for depressive symptoms in psychiatric inpatients.

A small pilot study (n=22) will be carried out to demonstrate feasibility, using the FDA-approved stimulation site for depression treatment (L-DLPFC). Participants will be offered stimulation at the anterior cingulate cortex (ACC).

Conditions

  • Depression and Suicide

Interventions

DEVICE

Dorsolateral Prefrontal Cortex Accelerated Theta Burst Stimulation

Participants will receive iTBS (intermittent theta burst stimulation) to the left DLPFC. Stimulation intensity will be standardized at 80% of resting motor threshold (adjusted for cortical depth). Stimulation will be delivered using the Brainsway TMS system.

DEVICE

Anterior Cingulate Cortex Accelerated Theta Burst Stimulation

Participants will receive iTBS (intermittent theta burst stimulation) to the anterior cingulate cortex (ACC). Stimulation intensity will be standardized at 80% of resting motor threshold (adjusted for cortical depth). Stimulation will be delivered using the Brainsway TMS system.
