Brief summary
There is relatively insufficient evidence on whether rTMS can improve suicidal ideation in depressive patients. And existing studies have been inconsistent in the treatment of depressive suicidal thoughts. The possible reason is inaccurate stimuli localization. Improving the accuracy of rTMS stimulus positioning may further improve the intervention effect of suicidal ideation. This study will introduce an automated TMS system with robot control and optical sensor combined with neuronavigation softwarea. By using the robot based on neuronavigation system, the rTMS coil can be accurately positioned over any preselected brain region. An infrared optical measurement device is also used in order to detect and compensate for head movements of the patient. The purpose of this randomized double-blind and sham-controlled study is to test the efficacy and safety of robot-assisted rTMS based on neuronavigation in the treatment of depressive suicidal ideation.
Interventions
COMBINATION_PRODUCTRobot-assisted accelerated iTBS-1800 combined with serotonin-norepinephrine reuptake inhibitors(SNRIs)
Subjects will receive a 5-day trial of robot-assisted accelerated iTBS-1800 (10 sessions of iTBS1800 with 50 min interval per day over 5 consecutive days) combined with SNRIs（Venlafaxine or Duloxetine).
COMBINATION_PRODUCTRobot-assisted accelerated iTBS-600 combined with serotonin-norepinephrine reuptake inhibitors(SNRIs)
Subjects will receive a 5-day trial of robot-assisted accelerated iTBS-600 (6 sessions of iTBS600 with 30 min interval per day over 5 consecutive days) combined with SNRIs（Venlafaxine or Duloxetine）
COMBINATION_PRODUCTSham accelerated iTBS combined with serotonin-norepinephrine reuptake inhibitors(SNRIs)
Subjects will receive a 5-day trial of sham accelerated iTBS (6 sessions of iTBS600 with 30 min interval per day over 5 consecutive days) combined with SNRIs（Venlafaxine or Duloxetine）

Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Change in the Beck Scale for Suicidal Ideation-Chinese Version (BSI-CV) Score | Pre-treatment to immediately post treatment (on day 5) | Outcome measured by a change in BSI-CV score from baseline to 4 weeks post-treatment. BSI-CV is a self-reported questionnaire with 19 items. Each item is rated on a 3 point scale from 0 to 2. Scores range from 0 to 48. Total scoreScores of 0 - 16 indicate low risk for suicide; scores of 16 or greater indicate higher risk for suicide. |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Change in the 17-Item Hamilton Rating Scale for Depression (HAMD-17) Score | Pre-treatment to immediately post treatment (on day 5) and 2 weeks, 4 weeks post-treatment | Outcome measured by a change in HAMD-17 score from baseline to 4 weeks post-treatment.The HAMD Total Score comprises a sum of the 17 individual item scores. Each item is rated on a 3 point scale from 0 to 2. The Total Score can range from 0 to 52, and higher scores indicate a greater degree of depression. Response is defined as having a 50% or greater reduction from baseline in HAMD total score. Remission is defined as having a HAMD total score of ≤7. |
| Change in the Montgomery-Asberg Depression Rating Scale (MADRS) Score | Pre-treatment to immediately post treatment (on day 5) and 2 weeks, 4 weeks post-treatment | Outcome measured by a change in MADRS score from baseline to 4 weeks post-treatment. The MADRS is a 10-item, clinician-rated questionnaire used to evaluate the severity of depression. Each item is rated on a scale from 0-6.4,5 Scores are then summed to yield a total score ranging from 0 (none/absent) to 60 (most severe). |
| Change in the Beck Depression Inventory (BDI) | Pre-treatment to immediately post treatment (on day 5) and 2 weeks, 4 weeks post-treatment | Outcome measured by a change in BDI score from baseline to 4 weeks post-treatment. The BDI-II is a 21-item, self-rated scale that assesses the severity of depressive symptoms.Items are rated according to severity on a 0-3 scale, with the exception of two items rated on a 0-6 scale.The BDI is scored by simple addition and has a maximum total score of 63 .Higher total scores indicate more severe depressive symptoms. |
| Change in the 6-Item Hamilton Rating Scale for Depression (HAMD-6) Score | Pre-treatment to immediately post treatment (on day 5) and 2 weeks, 4 weeks post-treatment | HAMD-6 is a shorter version of the HAMD-17 scale which measures only depressed mood (item 1), feeling of guilt (item 2), work and activities (item 7), motor retardation (item 8), psychic anxiety (item 10), and somatic symptoms (general) (item 13). Higher total scores indicate more severe depressive symptoms. |
