The Role of Fast or Slow Repetitive Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation as Adjunct Therapy in Civilian Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder
In Brief
A clinical study evaluating rTMS for Post-traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD). Completed, enrolled 31 participants across 1 site.
Detailed Summary
The purpose of this study is to assess the effects of repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) in civilian patients with a confirmed diagnosis of post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD). This research study will determine whether low-frequency (1 Hertz \[Hz\]) or high-frequency (10 Hz) rTMS over the right dorsolateral prefrontal cortex (DLPFC) has an effect on symptoms of PTSD compared to sham rTMS treatment.
