Summary

The purpose of this study is to gather information regarding the use of a new type of transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) called theta burst stimulation (TBS) for suicidal ideation in adolescents with Major Depressive Disorder (MDD). The investigators hope to learn if this TMS treatment improves suicidal ideation over 10 days and clinical outcomes over 1 year of follow-up.

Conditions

Interventions

DEVICE

MagVenture TMS Therapy System w/Theta Burst Stimulation

During each session continuous theta burst stimulation (cTBS) in which 1800 pulses are delivered continuously over 120 seconds to the right dorsolateral prefrontal cortex (RDPFC) is administered first, followed by iTBS in which 1800 pulses are delivered in 2 second bursts, repeated every 10 seconds for 570 seconds (1800 pulses) to the left dorsolateral prefrontal cortex (LDPFC). The device consists of a magnetic stimulator, MagPro X100 and a magnetic coil used for MT determination, C-B70 and a treatment coil, the Cool-B70 A/P coil. The A/P version of the coil, contains both an active site (A) and a sham (P) site. The magnetic field properties on the active site are identical to that of the standard Cool-B70 coil, cleared for iTBS treatment.

DEVICE

Sham MagVenture TMS Therapy System w/Theta Burst Stimulation

During each session continuous theta burst stimulation (cTBS) in which 1800 pulses are delivered continuously over 120 seconds to the right dorsolateral prefrontal cortex (RDPFC) is administered first, followed by iTBS in which 1800 pulses are delivered in 2 second bursts, repeated every 10 seconds for 570 seconds (1800 pulses) to the left dorsolateral prefrontal cortex (LDPFC). The device consists of a magnetic stimulator, MagPro X100 and a magnetic coil used for MT determination, C-B70 and a treatment coil, the Cool-B70 A/P coil. The A/P version of the coil, contains both an active site (A) and a sham (P) site. The magnetic field on the sham site is significantly reduced, and is less than 5% of that of the active site.
