Each outcome the trial registered, primary first, in ClinicalTrials.gov's words.

ListOutcomeTime frameDescription
PrimaryChange from baseline in depressive symptoms as measured by the 17-item Hamilton Depression Rating Scaleup to 14 months
The time frame is an approximation as evaluation is performed after each crossover phase. The time interval between baseline and evaluation depends on the time required for optimisation of DBS parameters.
