A Multicenter Clinical Study of rTMS for Parkinson's Disease

Recruiting
30-80 years
All
Phase N/A

Overview

Through rTMS, motor dysfunction and non-motor dysfunction of PD patients can be improved, working and living ability and quality of life of patients can be improved, and social burden and family burden can be reduced.

Description

According to the inclusion criteria, a total of 200 patients with Parkinson's disease were planned to be enrolled in each center, and randomly divided into control group (conventional treatment) and observation group (conventional treatment +rTMS) for a treatment cycle of 4 weeks. They were followed up for 3 months before treatment, 2 weeks and 4 weeks, respectively, after treatment, to evaluate the efficacy and function. The unified Parkinson's Disease Rating Scale (UPDRS) was used. Cognitive function assessment Monteller Cognitive Assessment Scale (MoCA); Barthel Index for daily living activities; Depression assessment Hamilton Depression Scale (HAMD); Hamilton Anxiety Scale (HAMA); Sleep assessment PD Sleep Scale (PDSS); Pain assessment King Parkinson's Pain Assessment (KPPS) and adverse events were recorded.
