  • New TMS Research: Prevent future pain with pre-emptive, non-invasive brain stimulation. Article states: "Now, in a new study, researchers from the University of New South Wales (UNSW) and Neuroscience Research Australia (NeuRA) have demonstrated that a short course of treatment with TMS before the onset of pain can prevent it from becoming a chronic issue. “Our research showed that repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation, or rTMS, which is a non-invasive brain stimulation, could be delivered in a preventive way, before pain takes hold,” said Nahian Chowdhury, PhD, a registered psychologist, NeuRA research fellow, lecturer at UNSW and the study’s lead author. #TMS #pain #neuroscience https://lnkd.in/gDrNaaV8

  • UK TMS NEWS ANNOUNCEMENT   Magstim Horizon Inspire Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation Device Approved By UKCA for NHS & Private UK Clinics UK System for Patient Treatment of MDD, OCD and Decreasing Anxiety*   Magstim has been awarded UKCA clearance for the Horizon Inspire System, continuing to provide NHS physicians and researchers with next-generation transcranial magnetic stimulation technology to treat patients with MDD, OCD and Decreasing Anxiety*.   “As the first to introduce clinical TMS into the NHS, our team continues delivering innovative treatments to help treat depression and anxiety,” said Professor Alex O’Neill Kerr, MBChB, Medical Director of Transforming Mind Solutions. “This new system takes trusted Magstim TMS technology to the next level, improving patient outcomes.”   Magstim has supplied the NHS with TMS technology for more than 30 years. The Inspire enables both experienced TMS providers as well as those who are new to TMS to get up a running fast to provide patient treatments.”   The Inspire provides high-power air-cooling, ability to deliver back-to-back customizable treatments, all while being easy to use, cost-effective and offering portability between clinic rooms. Magstim TMS technology is cited in more than 20,000 peer reviewed research papers and used in hospitals, clinics and research centers worldwide.   The use of Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation for treating MDD and OCD is increasing worldwide, driven by new studies demonstrating its effectiveness over other treatments (**).   The Horizon Inspire system leverages intuitive preset clinical workflows to simplify the treatment process, delivering precise results with no pulse decay, ensuring the correct dosage. Magstim’s air-cooled coil reduces downtime and eliminates additional cooling expenses. Advanced data analytics tools improve treatment efficacy. * Horizon 3.0 Inspire is indicated for the treatment of MDD in adult patients who have failed to achieve satisfactory improvement from prior antidepressant medication in the current episode, as well as an adjunct for the treatment of adult patients suffering from Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder (OCD).   ** https://lnkd.in/eK94AXEH Learn more at: https://lnkd.in/gytY6t9w   #TMS #depression #UKCA #NHS

  • Exciting New TMS Research: Transcranial direct current stimulation with repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation effective for depression Study states: "Evidence Rating Level: 1 (Excellent) Noninvasive brain-stimulation techniques such as repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) and transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) have each been found to be effective in treating depression when applied individually. However, it remains unclear whether the combination of rTMS and tDCS offers greater efficacy in treating major depressive disorder (MDD). This study thus examined the efficacy and safety of rTMS and tDCS, both individually and in combination, in patients with MDD. This double-blind, sham-controlled randomized clinical trial included adults aged 18-65 diagnosed with MDD from three hospitals in China." Study further states: "Overall, this study found that the combination of tDCS + rTMS was safe and had greater efficacy in reducing depressive symptoms in participants with MDD than tDCS + rTMS alone. Future studies are needed to confirm study findings and elucidate the mechanisms underlying the synergistic effect tDCS + rTMS." Study states: "We used a Magstim Rapid stimulator (Magstim Ltd) for the rTMS treatment, with all patients receiving 10-Hz stimulation via a figure-8 coil on the left DLPFC. Each session included 40 trains (1600 pulses) with 4-second intervals and 26-second intertrain breaks. Treatments were delivered at 110% resting motor threshold from Monday through Friday for 2 weeks. Sham stimulation treatments were performed using a pseudostimulation coil (Coil-D70air film; Magstim Ltd). This coil was placed on the left DLPFC and emitted only sound without stimulation."
