Abstract
The present case report investigated whether 1 Hz repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) could reduce the symptoms and electrophysiological variables associated with spindling excessive beta (SEB) located in the frontal lobes. A 9-year-old patient who displayed emotional reactivity and impulsivity was evaluated using a computerized assessment of cognitive functioning and a quantitative electroencephalogram (qEEG) which displayed SEB. The patient was treated for 5 days with a 1 Hz rTMS protocol using a deep TMS coil. Improvements in both electrical power and cognitive measures were observed after a post qEEG. This report concludes that more research is needed to evince that inhibitory rTMS can reduce power in SEB and improve symptoms of over arousal.
