Ketamine+rTMS Study
Maintenance of antidepressant effect by magnetic modulation (rTMS) among patients with treatment-resistant depression who responded to low dose ketamine infusion: a double-blind randomized sham rTMS-controlled study
ketamine+rTMS study
| Asia(except Japan) |
Treatment-resistant depression (TRD)
| Psychiatry |
Others
YES
If the efficacy of ketamine infusion + rTMS is greater than ketamine + srTMS, it will approve prolongation/enhancement of ketamine efficacy by physical electronic stimulation and will provide a novel treatment strategy for patients with TRD in the future.
