简要总结
A battery of physiological and behavioral data will be collected before and after application of eTMS. Participants will be veterans or first responders diagnosed with PTSD. Study will be a double-blind, sham-controlled, parallel group, randomized clinical trial.
详细描述
Veterans and first responders diagnosed with PTSD will be studied to evaluate safety and efficacy of an EEG personalized TMS paradigm. All participants will undergo 2 days of extensive testing prior to eTMS application and 2 days of testing after. Testing will include MRI, OPM, EEG, behavioral tasks, questionnaires, and an EEG sleep study.
