Effect of Repetitive Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation on Psychomotor Retardation in Major Depression: A Pilot Feasibility Study.

Effect of Repetitive Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation on Psychomotor Retardation in Major Depression: A Pilot Feasibility Study. J Neuropsychiatry Clin Neurosci. 2015 Oct 9;:appineuropsych15030068 Authors: Thomas-Ollivier V, Deschamps T, Bulteau S, Le Gall F, Pichot A, Valriviere P, Vachon H, Sauvaget A Abstract This pilot study investigated the feasibility of a comprehensive battery of tests assessing psychomotor retardation after a 3-week protocol of repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation for depression. In addition to the beneficial effect of this treatment on depression, the results showed positive changes in psychomotor retardation. PMID: 26449267 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]
