Summary

This is a prospective, single-blinded, randomized, multicenter study to evaluate the utility, safety, and efficacy of using PEER Interactive - an EEG-based technology - to inform the prescription of medications to participants with a primary diagnosis of a depressive disorder, with or without comorbidity of non-psychotic behavioral disorders, versus treatment as usual.

Conditions

  • Depression
  • Non-psychotic Diagnosis as Co-morbidity

Interventions

DEVICE

The PEER Report

PEER Interactive references a subject's QEEG to a normative and then symptomatic database. By comparing a given subject's QEEG to a database of QEEGs of subjects who have tried and responded to a specific medication, PEER provides useful information regarding the response of neurophysiologically similar subjects to a wide number of medications - providing clinicians with useful information as to medication outcomes before a medication regime is started. Clinicians have also reported that negative findings (in which neurophysiologically similar subjects reported resistant outcomes for certain medications) can be extremely useful in reducing trial and error. It has also been used to help select the medication that best matches the QEEG brainwave pattern.
