Summary

This study evaluates an accelerated schedule of theta-burst stimulation using a transcranial magnetic stimulation device for treatment-resistant bipolar depression. In this open-label study, all participants will receive accelerated theta-burst stimulation.

Conditions

Interventions

DEVICE

Accelerated intermittent theta-burst treatment

All participants will receive accelerated intermittent theta-burst stimulation to the left DLPFC. Treatment will be targeted by utilizing the Localite neuronavigation system. Stimulation intensity will be standardized at 90% of resting motor threshold adjust to the skull to cortical surface distance. Stimulation will be delivered to left DLPFC using the MagPRo stimulator.
