Repetitive Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation in Adolescents With Persistent Postconcussion Symptoms After Mild Traumatic Brain Injury: An Open Label Safety and Feasibility Study
High frequency rTMS to the left dorsolateral prefrontal cortex is safe/feasible for adolescents with PPCS. Results provide data to inform large randomized, sham-controlled trials to explore the efficacy of rTMS to treat pediatric PPCS.
