重要性需要对双相情感障碍的治疗采取更有效、更耐受的干预措施。经颅直流电刺激(TDC)是一种新的治疗方式,严重不良反应少,对单相抑郁有良好的疗效。目的探讨TDCs作为双相抑郁辅助治疗的有效性和安全性。设计、设置和参与者从2014年7月1日到2016年3月30日,在门诊、单中心的学术环境中进行了一项随机、假对照、双盲试验(双相抑郁电疗试验[BECT])。参与者包括59名患有严重抑郁发作的I型或II型双相情感障碍的成年人,他们接受了稳定的药物治疗方案,17项汉密尔顿抑郁量表(HDRS-17)得分高于17。数据分析在意向治疗样本中进行。干预:活动或假性tDCs每天进行10次30分钟、2 mA、阳极左、阴阳极右前额叶训练,每两周1次,6周结束。结果59例患者(女性40例,占68%),平均年龄45.9岁(12岁),双相I型36例(61%),双相II型23例(39%),52例完成试验。在意向治疗分析中,处于活动状态的患者比接受假治疗的患者有显著的改善(INT=−1.68;需要治疗的数量,5.8;95%CI,3.3-25.8;P=.01)。与假手术组相比,活动组的累积有效率更高(67.6%比30.4%;需要治疗的次数,2.69;95%的可信区间,1.84-4.99;P=0.01),但缓解率不高(37.4%比19.1%;需要治疗的次数,5.46;95%的可信区间,3.38-14.2;P=.18)。不良事件,包括治疗中出现的情感转换,两组之间相似,除了局部皮肤发红在活动组更高(54%比19%;P=.01)。结论和相关性:在这项试验中,对于这一小型双相抑郁样本,tDCS是一种有效、安全和可耐受的附加干预措施。进一步的试验应该在更大的样本中检验tdcs的有效性。临床试验注册.gov标识:NCT02152878
Importance More effective, tolerable interventions for bipolar depression treatment are needed. Transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) is a novel therapeutic modality with few severe adverse events that showed promising results for unipolar depression. Objective To determine the efficacy and safety of tDCS as an add-on treatment for bipolar depression. Design, Setting, and Participants A randomized, sham-controlled, double-blind trial (the Bipolar Depression Electrical Treatment Trial [BETTER]) was conducted from July 1, 2014, to March 30, 2016, at an outpatient, single-center academic setting. Participants included 59 adults with type I or II bipolar disorder in a major depressive episode and receiving a stable pharmacologic regimen with 17-item Hamilton Depression Rating Scale (HDRS-17) scores higher than 17. Data were analyzed in the intention-to-treat sample. Interventions Ten daily 30-minute, 2-mA, anodal-left and cathodal-right prefrontal sessions of active or sham tDCS on weekdays and then 1 session every fortnight until week 6. Main Outcomes and Measures Change in HDRS-17 scores at week 6. Results Fifty-nine patients (40 [68%] women), with a mean (SD) age of 45.9 (12) years participated; 36 (61%) with bipolar I and 23 (39%) with bipolar II disorder were randomized and 52 finished the trial. In the intention-to-treat analysis, patients in the active tDCS condition showed significantly superior improvement compared with those receiving sham (int = −1.68; number needed to treat, 5.8; 95% CI, 3.3-25.8; P = .01). Cumulative response rates were higher in the active vs sham groups (67.6% vs 30.4%; number needed to treat, 2.69; 95% CI, 1.84-4.99; P = .01), but not remission rates (37.4% vs 19.1%; number needed to treat, 5.46; 95% CI, 3.38-14.2; P = .18). Adverse events, including treatment-emergent affective switches, were similar between groups, except for localized skin redness that was higher in the active group (54% vs 19%; P = .01). Conclusions and Relevance In this trial, tDCS was an effective, safe, and tolerable add-on intervention for this small bipolar depression sample. Further trials should examine tDCS efficacy in a larger sample. Trial Registration clinicaltrials.gov Identifier: NCT02152878
