Filter by:Transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) involves the use of magnetic fields to non-invasively stimulate the brain. Studies overseas have suggested this may be an effective and safe treatment for auditory hallucinations in patients with schizophrenia. This is a sham-controlled, double-blind trial of TMS stimulation for the treatment of auditory hallucinations in patients with schizophrenia.
This is a randomized double-blind study to determine if the administration of a small-dose of ketamine (an anesthetic)added to morphine (an opioid) contributes to reducing pain intensity during open wound care procedure (WCP)in patients who have had a traumatic injury and are in an Intensive Care Unit. Patients will be randomized to receive morphine plus saline (a placebo) or morphine plus ketamine before the WCP. The second time the patient is scheduled for WCP (no less than 24 hours), patients will be crossed over to receive the treatment they did not receive the first time. It is hypothesized that patients who receive the combination of morphine and ketamine will have better pain control during the procedure than patients who just receive morphine.
This trial is designed to determine if administering repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) simultaneously to two sites in the temporal lobes, one on the left and one on the right, produces greater improvements in "voices" and other symptoms of schizophrenia compared to rTMS given to just one site in the temporal lobes.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the changes in various aspects of auditory verbal hallucinations during 24-week antipsychotic treatment in naturalistic condition.
This study will determine the efficacy of MRI-guided transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS)in reducing "voices" and other symptoms experienced by people with schizophrenia and schizoaffective disorder. In addition, the study will determine duration of improvement obtained during the course of trial participation via on-going monthly contact with study participants for up to 1 year after the trial.
The goal of the project is to characterize abnormalities in brain structure and function related to schizophrenia. The investigators will use advanced magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) techniques to measure the degree and distribution of neuronal activity during specific cognitive tasks, alterations in neuronal connectivity, and how these are related to disease symptoms and treatment.
The primary objective is to demonstrate that the investigational new drug, ACP-103, is well tolerated by, and will not worsen parkinsonism in, patients with Parkinson's disease and psychosis. The secondary objectives are to determine whether ACP-103 will ameliorate psychosis in patients with Parkinson's disease and whether ACP-103 is safe in Parkinson's disease patients taking multiple anti-parkinsonian medications.
This study will evaluate the long-term effects of repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) in patients with auditory hallucinations.
