简要总结
This study aims to assess the therapeutic role of rTMS on parkinson's patients with depression. Patients diagnosed with Parkinson's Disease and depression will be recruited. All patients will be admitted and will be allocated randomly into two groups one of which will receive real sessions of high frequency rTMS for left dorsolateral prefrontal cortex (DLPFC) for 10 consecutive sessions totally over period of 10 days with repeated booster sessions every month during the period of follow up. The other will receive sham sessions.
详细描述
This study aims to assess the therapeutic role of rTMS on parkinson's patients with depression. Thirty PD patients with depression using United Kingdom (UK ) bank criteria for PD will be recruited from outpatient clinic in Assiut University. All patients will be admitted at Neuropsychiatric Department, Assiut University Hospital/ Assiut, Egypt.Each patient fulfilled the inclusion criteria as having score more than or equal 14 on Beck Depression Inventory (BDI) will be recruited. The patients will be allocated randomly into two groups one of which will receive real sessions of high frequency rTMS (25 HZ), with intensity of 80% of resting motor threshold detected from the hand motor area, with total 2000 pulses for left DLPFC for 10 consecutive sessions totally over period of 10 days with repeated booster session every month during the period of follow up among three months. The other will receive sham sessions. All subjects will be followed up by selected clinical rating scales at different intervals pre session, post 10 sessions, and after one, two and three months.
