TMS - Intermittent Theta Bursts and the SAINT Trial


Listen Later

This episode is dedicated to all the med studs and residents who cringe every time they have to go to journal club. I report the results of an initial trial of a special kind of Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation of the brain that might be the future of depression treatment, at least for the treatment resistant or severe varieties.  I also use this as an opportunity to explain a little more about how repetitive TMS is usually performed (that is, its current FDA approved form), killing two dinosaurs with one asteroid.
