Comparison of Different Acceleration Modes of Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation
Sponsor: First Affiliated Hospital of Zhejiang University
Summary
To compare the efficacy and safety of 6 times a day, 10 times a day acceleration mode and sham stimulation intervention for TRD, and to explore the antidepressant mechanism of accelerated mode, so as to provide a more simple and effective rapid treatment plan for TRD patients.

Conditions
Interventions
Noninvasive transcranial magnetic stimulation was administered six times daily
The motor threshold of 100% intensity, a TBS stimulus train for 2 seconds, including 10 times of 3 intrapascicular stimulation at 50 Hz and interapascicular stimulation at 5HZ, intervals of 10s, 60 repetitions, that is, a total of 1800 pulses per treatment, 6 treatments per day, 50 min apart, a total of 10800 pulses/day, continuous stimulation for 5 days.
Noninvasive transcranial magnetic stimulation was administered 10 times daily
The motor threshold of 100% intensity, a TBS stimulus train stimulation for 2 seconds, including 10 times of 3 intrapascicular stimulation at 50 Hz and interapascicular stimulation at 5HZ, intervals of 10s, 60 repetitions, that is, a total of 1800 pulses per treatment, 10 treatments per day, intervals of 50 min, a total of 18000 pulses/day, continuous stimulation for 5 days.
Sham
The appearance of the sham stimulation coil was consistent with that of the real stimulation coil, which could simulate the touch and sound of the scalp caused by the real stimulation. The treatment frequency, location, intensity and time of the sham stimulation group were the same as those of the real stimulation group.
