EICHORCondition: PTSD · Sponsor: VA Office of Research and Development
Veterans with posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) need more effective treatments. Existing options can have limited adherence and can be very time-consuming. As such, alternative interventions are needed. Transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) has been FDA-cleared for depression since 2008 and has recently been cleared to treat smoking cessation and obsessive-compulsive disorder. It has demonstrated promise for reducing PTSD symptom severity but standard TMS has a significant time requirement. This study will compare an accelerated 5-day form of TMS versus sham for PTSD, characterizing efficacy and durability. This project will provide important information that can be implemented in the near term for Veterans with PTSD.
