Clinical Trial: Perioperative Low-Frequency rTMS for Sleep After Thoracoscopic Lung Resection

U.S., Sept. 2 -- ClinicalTrials.gov registry received information related to the study (NCT07796451) titled 'Perioperative Low-Frequency rTMS for Sleep After Thoracoscopic Lung Resection' on Aug. 15.

Brief Summary: This randomized, double-blind, sham-controlled trial will evaluate whether perioperative low-frequency repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) can improve early postoperative in-hospital sleep quality in adults undergoing elective thoracoscopic lung resection for primary lung cancer.

A total of 220 participants with preoperative sleep impairment will be randomly assigned in a 1:1 ratio to active rTMS or matched sham stimulation. Active rTMS will target the left dorsolateral prefrontal cortex. Five stimulation sessio...
