Summary

The goal of this clinical trial is to compare response rates after treatment with Figure Eight-Coil TMS versus H-Coil TMS on the prefrontal cortex left dorsolateral, in patients suffering from depression resistant. The main question it aims to answer is:

rTBS (accelerated neuronavigated intermittent Theta Burst Stimulation) is more effective than hTBS (accelerated deep intermittent Theta Burst Stimulation) in the treatment of resistant depression in terms of response rate.?

Researchers will compare Figure Eight-Coil TMS (rTBS) versus H-Coil TMS (hTBS) to see if rTBS is more effective than hTBS.

Participants will:

* Receive, for each stimulation method, 8 sessions per day spaced 50 minutes apart, over 5 days.
* Have visit all day of stimulation for checkups and tests.
* Have a a research MRI before and after treatment.
* Have follow-up visits at 1 month, 2 months, 3 months, 6 months, and 12 months post-treatment, via teleconsultation.

Conditions

  • Treatment of Resistant Depression
  • H1-Coil
  • Theta Burst Stimulation

Interventions

DEVICE

repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation

A burst of 3 pulses sent at a frequency of 50 Hz, repeated with a frequency of 5 Hz for 2 seconds, followed by an 8-second pause. This sequence is repeated for 59 cycles, totaling 9 minutes and 50 seconds, with a total of 1800 pulses.
