Interventions
Repetitive Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation
rTMS intervention timing: rTMS is applied after the tracheal tube is removed in the PACU. Stimulation site: DLPFC (left dorsolateral prefrontal cortex); Stimulation intensity: 100% RMT; Stimulation frequency: 10Hz; Total number of stimulation pulses: 2000. Pulse characteristics: Each duration lasts 5 seconds, with a 25-second interval.
