Official title
Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS) in Pregnant Women With Depressive Disorder
Brief summary
Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.
The purpose of this study is to determine if repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) will alleviate symptoms of major depressive disorder (MDD) in pregnant women. TMS uses electromagnetic impulses to encourage neurons in the brain to communicate more effectively with one another. Effective neuron communication is thought to lead to the lessening of depressive symptoms. In this study subjects require daily TMS treatment for approximately four weeks.
