A naturalistic analysis of rTMS treatment outcomes for major depressive disorder in West Australian youth
The findings of this naturalistic report suggest that an acute course of rTMS is safe and effective - resulting in similar response rates in adolescent and youth patients as reported in adults. Future large-scale, randomized, and sham-controlled trials are needed to consolidate and add to these findings.
