Real rTMS will involve a figure-of-eight coil flat against the head delivering 1Hz stimulation at 90% of the thenar resting motor threshold.\n  2. Sham rTMS will involve holding the coil perpendicular to the scalp to prevent brain stimulation.\n  3. PES will involve a catheter delivering 0.2-ms pulses at 5Hz and 75% of the maximal tolerated intensity for 10 minutes. Sham PES will involve deactivating the current generator.\n* Complete PMEP and TMEP measurements at baseline before intervention and every 15 minutes from 0 - 60 minutes after the rTMS-PES procedure.\n* Complete a survey regarding tolerability and safety at the end of each visit.",[97],"Healthy Subjects (HS)","2025-03-13",{"date":100,"type":101},"2025-03-19","ACTUAL",{"date":103,"type":101},"2024-09-14",{"date":105,"type":91},"2025-08-31",{"name":5,"class":6},1]
