Official Title: Personalized Circuit-Based Frontoamygdala Neuromodulation for Persistent Post-Concussive Symptoms
Brief Summary:
The goal of this study is to investigate a new treatment for chronic symptoms after concussion or mild traumatic brain injury in people aged 18-65 years old.
Chronic symptoms could include dizziness, headache, fatigue, brain fog, memory difficulty, sleep disruption, irritability, or anxiety that occurred or worsened after the injury.
These symptoms can interfere with daily functioning, causing difficulty returning to physical activity, work, or school.
Previous concussion therapies have not been personalized nor involved direct treatments to the brain itself.
The treatment being tested in the present study is a noninvasive, personalized form of brain stimulation, called transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS).
The investigators intend to answer the questions:
Participants will undergo 14 total visits to University of California Los Angeles (UCLA):
Participants will have a 66% chance of being assigned to an active TMS group and 33% chance of being assigned to a sham, or inactive, TMS group.
The difference is that the active TMS is more likely to cause functional changes in the brain than the inactive TMS.
