Embark on a journey into the future of depression treatment with the groundbreaking study featured in “Brain Stimulation.” This research, hosted by the National Library of Medicine, meticulously compares the Standard and innovative Dash Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS) protocols for Major Depressive Disorder.
Introduced in 2016, the Dash protocol, with its variable inter-train intervals (ITI) ranging from 11 to 25 seconds, has emerged as a beacon of practicality without compromising efficacy. The study, conducted across 103 practice sites with over 7759 participants, showcases the strikingly similar response and remission rates between the two protocols. With a focus on real-world application, the Dash protocol, with its shortened session duration of 18.75 minutes, offers a pragmatic and time-efficient alternative.
Published in “Brain Stimulation,” this research not only contributes significant insights into TMS for MDD but also underscores the practical advantages of the Dash protocol. For those seeking an effective, efficient, and patient-friendly approach to depression treatment, the Dash protocol stands out.
