Safety of rTMS for children with autism
Part of Mental health clinical trials.
This trial tests whether a safe, non-invasive brain stimulation treatment (called rTMS) is well-tolerated in children and teens with autism. rTMS uses magnetic pulses to gently stimulate parts of the brain, and this study wants to see if it can be given safely to young people with autism.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

Other trials that look related to this one.
This trial uses a non-invasive brain stimulation technique called rTMS (repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation) to see if it can help children with autism or ADHD. The goal is to find out if this treatment can improve symptoms and is safe for this age group.
This trial tests whether repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) can safely and effectively treat major depression in adults who also have autism spectrum disorder. rTMS uses magnetic pulses to stimulate specific brain areas without surgery.
This trial tests whether transcranial magnetic stimulation (a non-surgical treatment using magnets on the scalp) can reduce restricted and repetitive behaviors seen in autism. It’s designed for people with autism who have high levels of certain repetitive behaviors, like insistence on sameness or unusual interests.
This study tests whether transcranial magnetic stimulation (a non-surgical brain stimulation) can affect brain activity and learning in adults, including some autistic adults. You may also do EEG and eye-tracking tasks during the study.
This study tests whether a non-invasive brain stimulation technique called TMS can help adults with autism. TMS uses magnetic pulses to gently stimulate a part of the brain related to social and emotional functions. It may improve symptoms and is performed while you are awake.
This study tests a non-invasive brain stimulation technique called transcranial temporal interference stimulation (a safe electrical method applied to the scalp) to help improve symptoms in children with autism spectrum disorder (ASD). The goal is to see if this treatment can help with social communication, behavior, and other autism-related challenges.
