Major Depressive Disorder Clinical Trial
Official title:
Investigation of Efficacy and Response Speed of a Combination Treatment of Escitalopram and Repetitive Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation
We intend to test in a randomized, rater blinded, placebo controlled, prospective study the primary hypothesis that an escitalopram-rTMS-combination treatment is more efficacious in the treatment of refractory major depression assessed with the Hamilton Depression Rating Scale
