STUDY ON SIDE EFFECTS OF TRANSCRANIAL MAGNETIC STIMULATION IN PATIENT WITH SOMATIZATION DISORDERS
Main Article Content
Abstract
Objective: To describe the undesirable effects of transcranial magnetic stimulation therapy in patients with somatization disorders. Subjects and research methods: An describe, prospective study, 46 patients diagnosed with somatic disorders according to ICD-10 diagnostic criteria (1992) with pain symptoms, were treated as inpatients at the National Institutes of Health. Mental health from September 2022 to June 2023 was treated with a combination of drugs and transcranial magnetic stimulation at the primary motor cortex (90% MT, 10Hz, pulse sequence time of 5 seconds, at least performed 5 sessions during the course of treatmen. Result: Undesirable effects were seen in 54,3% of patients in the study but were mild in which the most common was pain in contact with coils (39,1%), contact burn, headache, tinnitus, dizziness. Adverse effects were mainly seen at week 1, less often at week 2. Conclusion: rTMS is an effective and safe treatment method.
