Study Summary

This work will mark the first step in understanding the neural targets for rTMS in youth with difficult to treat depressive symptoms, creating benchmarks for optimizing the safety and efficacy of rTMS for pediatric populations through precision targeting, and encourage funding applications for larger sham- controlled randomized clinical studies.

Primary Outcome

Standardized assessment to determine depression severity. The CDRS-R total score is the sum of the responses to 17 questions. Each question is graded on a 5- or 7-point scale. Total score ranges from 17-113. In general, higher values of CDRS-R total score represent greater severity of illness. Response to treatment is determined by a ≥ 50% reduction in score from baseline to end of treatment.
