The Effect of Repetitive Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation on Cognitive Improvement in Dementia With Lewy Bodies


Sponsor

Korea University Anam Hospital

Enrollment

10 participants

Start Date

Study Type

INTERVENTIONAL

Conditions

Summary

This study aimed to investigate the feasibility of repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) on the occipital lobe in patients with Lewy body dementia. This is a proof-of-concept study to evaluate the safety and effect of occipital lobe stimulation in patients with Lewy body dementia. Over a period of two weeks, participants will receive rTMS to the primary visual cortex three times a week during visits. For the remaining 10 weeks, maintenance therapy will be administered with rTMS once a week during visits. Efficacy assessments will be conducted on the day of the final stimulation session and again four weeks later.
