We're excited to share our latest research on the tolerability and feasibility of accelerated Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS) for adolescent Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder (OCD). OCD diagnosis and treatment in children and adolescents present significant challenges. Our study investigated accelerated TMS as a potential solution. Notably, this is one of the first published reports on accelerated TMS in adolescent OCD. Although our results showed limited clinical improvement, suggesting possible extreme treatment resistance, they provide valuable insights into: Feasibility of accelerated TMS in pediatric populations Safety considerations for planning accelerated TMS in children and adolescents Read our full manuscript to explore the findings: https://shorturl.at/8FfID
