Teta Burst Versus 10 Hz Repetitive Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation İn Neuropathic Pain: A Sham Controlled Comparison

Brief Summary

Neuropathic pain is a common complication after spinal cord injury (SCI), which significantly affects the patient's quality of life and may be resistant to pharmacological treatment. In our study, we aimed to evaluate the efficacies of intermittent theta burst (iTBS) and high frequency (10 Hz) repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) by comparing them with each other and with sham stimulation, in the treatment of neuropathic pain resistant to pharmacological treatment in patients with SCI. Question 1: İs rTMS anda iTBS treatment, useful for pain severity and the effect of pain on daily functions, in the treatment of neuropathic pain in SCI Question 2: Are rTMS and iTBS treatments effective in depression in patients with neuropathic pain after spinal cord injury?
