简要总结
OCD is a frequent and disabling psychiatric disorder with a lifetime prevalence of 1-3%. Approximately 40-60% of OCD patients remain treatment refractory to current first line therapies. Repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation is a non invasive brain stimulation technique proposed as a promising treatment via its neuroplastic effects. This study aims to observe the effectiveness of repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) as an augmenting treatment method in treatment refractory patients.Kindly consider for CTRI registration.
