Current equipment is a Rapid TMS system purchased from Magstim. The Rapid TMS delivers traditional TMS treatment protocol with a treatment run time of 20 minutes with a total appointment time of 1 hour to align treatment coil, prep patient, and provide treatment. Treatment requires multiple 1-hour visits and the clinic only has the capabilities to run one TMS machine. Subsequently, there is now a waitlist for TMS and some High-risk patients are unable to receive timely treatment that is even more scarce within the private sector. The other issue currently found with traditional TMS therapy is that the treatment must be applied to a precise location of the brain with each treatment for fully effective treatment within the least number of visits. The FDA has approved a rapid form of TMS with Theta Burst Stimulation (TBS) known as Express TMS. TBS treatment utilizes short bursts of stimulation at high frequencies that more closely mimics the natural rhythms of activity in the neurons of the brain than standard TMS therapy. Due to this technology, the treatment time is reduced from 20 minutes to only 3 minutes per treatment. Along with TBS there has been advancements in technology to locate and mark the exact location of the brain for efficacy in repeated treatments. Neuro Navigation systems are now available to deliver a precise and consistent treatment to patients. With the Neuro Navigation system, clinicians can locate and guide the treatment coil to a precise location time and time again ensuring each visit is delivering the most effective and consistent treatment to patients, reducing the number of visits needed while shortening prep time to manually locate treatment location in the brain. Upgrade of current TMS equipment to a system capable of Express TMS and a Neuro Navigation system will allow quicker, more accurate treatment of patients with Major Depressive Disorder. The result should be a treatment system that reduces treatment time, eliminates a back log of patients waiting for treatment, and offers a viable treatment option for patients opposed to the duration of traditional TMS. This will allow approximately 6 times as many patients to be treated and eliminate the wait-list improving access to care while aligning with Mission Act. Scope and Tasks: The Contractor will be required to upgrade or replace one existing Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation Magstim Rapid2 Therapy System (541 MX1779900) to deliver FDA approved Theta Burst Stimulation treatment and provide an FDA cleared Neuro Navigation system designed for a clinical setting. Result shall be FDA approved Express TMS Theta Burst stimulation capable equipment and Neuro Navigation system that are compatible from a single contractor. Contractor will be responsible for delivering, and installing any additional parts or equipment required to Louis Stokes Cleveland VA Medical Center room 1B-588. Contractor will provide warranty coverage to cover all supplies and services required to maintain equipment in operational status. Contractor will provide training on proper use and safety requirements to a minimum of 3 staff on proper use of all equipment. Equipment must have a treatment time of no more than 10 minutes to accomplish goals of clinic in reducing waitlist. Salient Characteristics: Requested item shall be: Be capable of having treatment run time of less than 10 minutes, but preferably 3. Be FDA cleared or approved for clinical treatment of Major Depressive Disorder Provide Express TMS through Theta Burst Stimulation Have extended warranty available Fit in current office setting with a footprint of 10ft x 12 ft with ceiling height of 8ft Run off existing 240V 20a electrical to prevent clinic downtime for electrical change over.
