Cortical Arousal Imbalance

This study investigates the effects of high and low-frequency paired associative deep transcranial magnetic stimulation (dTMS) on adults with Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD). The study aims to explore whether targeting the prefrontal cortex with paired stimulation can improve symptoms of ADHD by balancing cortical arousal between the brain hemispheres. A total of 90 participants with ADHD will be recruited. Participants with ADHD will undergo three weeks of daily TMS treatment, while participants who receive a sham treatment will be included for baseline comparisons. The study will measure electrophysiological, cognitive, and clinical outcomes using a variety of assessments, including EEG, cognitive tests, and CAARS to evaluate the treatment's efficacy.
