What this trial is about
The goal of this randomized controlled trial is to explore the efficacy and safety of two different dTMS devices in adolescent depression: deep TMS H1 coil and deep TMS H7 coil. The main questions it aims to answer are: Type of study: Clinical trial. Participant population: Adolescents with major depressive disorder (MDD). Objective: To explore whether the H7 coil is no less effective than the H1 coil for adolescents with MDD, further providing clinicians with additional treatment options for patients.
