    Reduction of the total score on BFCRS and NCRS by at least 50%

    6 months

  • The number of patient with the improvement

  • Verified diagnosis of schizophrenic or affective spectrum (schizophrenia, schizoaffective disorder, bipolar disorder, major depressive disorder)
  • Patient's ability (possibly accompanied by caregivers) to undergo diagnostic and therapeutic procedures;
  • The presence of residual catatonia in the form of such psychomotor anomalies as:
  • disorganisation of thinking with speech disturbance with verbigerations and/or sperrungs
  • hypo- and hyperkinetic psychomotor phenomena;
  • substupor without disturbance of consciousness;
  • elective mutism;
  • echo phenomena (echolalia and/or echopraxia);
  • phenomena of "wax flexibility"
  • speech and behavioral stereotypy
  • pathetic exaltation phenomena
  • the phenomenon of irritative asthenia
  • dysuric phenomena (monotonous activity and rigidity of affect)

You may not qualify if:

  • patient's refusal to participate in the study
  • acute hallucinatory-delusional symptoms
  • suicide risk
  • a patient taking prohibited therapy products
  • neuroleptic complications of antipsychotic therapy

SEQUENTIAL
Model Details: The design of the study involves following stages: * diagnostic stage and randomization; * 10 sessions of placebo-controlled stimulation protocols (high- and low-frequency magnetic pulses) * primary analysis of the effectiveness of protocols after 10 sessions of stimulation, followed by the transfer of all patients, including the placebo group to the most effective stimulation regiment (20 sessions of active neuromodulation) * final analysis of the effectiveness after 20 sessions of TMS and follow-up period (visits after 1 month and 6 months)
