Study Summary

The primary aim of this study is to assess the efficacy of Low Field Magnetic Stimulation (LFMS) in treating symptoms of depression and anxiety in older adults suffering from bipolar depression. The investigators also aim to assess any cognitive benefits from regular LFMS treatments in older adults suffering from bipolar depression.

Primary Outcome

The Montgomery-Asberg Depression Rating Scale (MADRS) is a diagnostic assessment measuring the severity of depressive symptoms. It is a 10-item scale assessing all core symptoms of repression. Each item is scored on a 7-point scale, ranging from 0 (symptom not present) to 6 (symptom severely present). Thus, the total score range is 0-60, with higher scores indicating more depressive symptom endorsement.

Interventions
