Does Nurse Semi Structured Interview Added to a rTMS Improve Patients With Major Depressive Disorder? (DESTIMCARE)

January 19, 2023 updated by: Rennes University Hospital

Does Nurse Semi - Structured Interview Added to a Repeated Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation Improve Patients With Major Depressive Disorder? A Single Center Study, Randomized, Controlled and Single Blind

Repeated Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation - R.TMS - is currently part of the treatment for depressive illness. This non-invasive technique is designed to stimulate certain areas of the cerebral cortex involved in this pathology. FDA approved this treatment in routine for depressive illness. R.TMS still remains in assessment. Due to the heterogeneity of methods and the weakness of the cohorts therapeutic superiority can not concluded .

Stimulation parameters remain numerous even if a consensus is beginning to emerge. The therapeutic target is the left dorso - lateral prefrontal cortex. The lack of efficacy is probably due of the inaccuracy. The empirically location of the target does not take into account the inter-individual anatomical differences. The neuronavigation is becoming widespread in routine clinical practice.

The referent nurse stays with the patient all along the rTMS sessions. His role is to set up treatment, to ensure the safety and the well-being of the patient. An rTMS session is an average of 30 minutes and is a very special moment to create a specific therapeutic relationship.

No study was conducted to evaluate the therapeutic relationship. The assumption is made that rTMS with a semi - structured interview provides a qualitative and quantitative clinical response greater than a semi - structured rTMS without this nursing care. The investigators therefore propose to patients not receiving a semi-structured interview to listen to music with eyes closed.

Detailed Description

Repeated Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation - R.TMS - is currently part of the treatment for depressive illness. This non-invasive technique is designed to stimulate certain areas of the cerebral cortex involved in this pathology. The Food & Drug Administration - FDA - approved this treatment in routine for depressive illness. R.TMS still remains in assessment. Due to the heterogeneity of methods and the weakness of the cohorts therapeutic superiority can not concluded . Stimulation parameters remain numerous even if a consensus is beginning to emerge. The therapeutic target is the left dorso - lateral prefrontal cortex. The lack of efficacy is probably due of the inaccuracy. The empirically location of the target does not take into account the inter-individual anatomical differences. The neuronavigation is becoming widespread in routine clinical practice.

The referent nurse stays with the patient all along the rTMS sessions. His role is to set up treatment, to ensure the safety and the well-being of the patient. An rTMS session is an average of 30 minutes and is a very special moment to create a specific therapeutic relationship. To our knowledge, no study was conducted to evaluate the therapeutic relationship. The assumption is made that rTMS with a semi - structured interview provides a qualitative and quantitative clinical response greater than a semi - structured rTMS without this nursing care. The investigators, therefore propose to patients not receiving a semi-structured interview to listen to music with eyes closed.

Phase

Phase

The stage of a clinical trial studying a drug or biological product, based on definitions developed by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA). The phase is based on the study's objective, the number of participants, and other characteristics. There are five phases: Early Phase 1 (formerly listed as Phase 0), Phase 1, Phase 2, Phase 3, and Phase 4. Not Applicable is used to describe trials without FDA-defined phases, including trials of devices or behavioral interventions.

Participation Criteria

Researchers look for people who fit a certain description, called eligibility criteria. Some examples of these criteria are a person's general health condition or prior treatments.

Eligibility Criteria

Eligibility Criteria

The key requirements that people who want to participate in a clinical study must meet or the characteristics they must have. Eligibility criteria consist of both inclusion criteria (which are required for a person to participate in the study) and exclusion criteria (which prevent a person from participating). Types of eligibility criteria include whether a study accepts healthy volunteers, has age or age group requirements, or is limited by sex.

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, the planned outcome measure that is the most important for evaluating the effect of an intervention/treatment. Most clinical studies have one primary outcome measure, but some have more than one.
Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
score of the Montgomery-Asberg Depression Rating Scale
Time Frame: day 44
The ratings should be based on a clinical interview moving from broadly phrased questions about symptoms to more detailed ones which allow a precise rating of severity. The rater must decide whether the rating lies on the defined scale steps (0, 2, 4, 6) or between them (1, 3, 5). It is important to remember that it is only rare occasions that a depressed patient is encountered who cannot be rated on the items in the scale. If definite answers cannot be elicited from the patients, all relevant clues as well as information from other sources should be used as a basis for the rating in line with customary clinical practice.
