Summary

The purpose of this study is to investigate the differences in efficacy between transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) and intermittent theta burst stimulation (iTBS) treatment in subjects suffering from major depressive disorder.

Conditions

Interventions

DEVICE

Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation

5,000 pulses (120-140% MT, continuous temperature of 24C) will be delivered per session (see Appendix A for timing parameters). Patients will have one TMS session per day, five days a week, until their treatment is completed (approximately four weeks).

DEVICE

Theta Burst Stimulation

One session of iTBS will deliver 1,800 pulses (120-140% MT, continuous temperature of 22ºC) over an 9-minute-40-second period. The minimum break period between iTBS sessions is 25 minutes.
