Brain zaps tested as last hope for untreatable depression

NCT ID NCT07184697

Summary

This study is testing a personalized brain stimulation treatment for people with severe depression that hasn't improved with standard medications. Ten participants with special research electrodes already implanted in their brains will receive both real and fake stimulation in random order to see if the treatment reduces depression symptoms. The goal is to see if this targeted electrical stimulation can help control depression when other treatments have failed.
