Repetitive Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (rTMS) for the Treatment of Freezing of Gait in Parkinson's Disease

Xuanwu Hospital, Beijing·interventional·Posted Jul 18, 2017·Updated May 14, 2021

In Brief

A clinical study evaluating High-frequency rTMS and Sham rTMS for Parkinson's Disease. Completed, enrolled 30 participants across 1 site.

Detailed Summary

This study is a double blind comparative study examining the effectiveness of the rTMS treatment on Freezing of Gait (FOG) in patients with Parkinson's disease (PD). The investigators hypothesize that treatment with rTMS on supplemental motor area will improve gait quality and decrease the frequency of FOG in PD patients.

Interventions

High-frequency rTMSdevice

It is delivered at a 5-second burst of 10Hz stimuli, repeated 20 times at every minute. Each treatment contains a total of 1000 pulses. Stimulus intensity is 90% of resting motor threshold. The SMA stimulation will be given using a coil centered at points 3-cm anterior to the leg motor area in the sagittal midline.

Sham rTMSdevice

The procedure will be same as the high-frequency rTMS except that the coil is 90° angled away.
