Neuromodulation in Patients With Neuropathic Pain and Depression.

Sponsor: Centre Hospitalier Universitaire de Saint Etienne

View on ClinicalTrials.gov

Summary

High-frequency repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation of the primary motor cortex has shown its effect on refractory neuropathic pain, and rTMS of the dorsolateral prefrontal cortex is commonly used for treatment-resistant depression. The treatment for patients suffering from neuropathic pain and depression, concomitantly, still needs to be studied, as there are some specificities in both symptoms and brain functional MRI.

Official title: Neuromodulation in Patients With Neuropathic Pain and Depression: a Cross-over Study Between Two Targets in Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation, the Primary Motor Cortex and the Dorsolateral Prefrontal Cortex.

DEVICE

Repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) - M1/DLPFC

Repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) is a treatment technique involving the induction of an electrical current on the surface of the cortex by applying a magnetic field to the scalp. This field is generated using a stimulation loop controlled by a robotic arm linked to a neuronavigation system. rTMS of M1 then rTMS of DLPFC.
