Background: Adolescent depression patients who have experienced stressful life events usually more severe symptoms. Existing treatment plans are not effective in reducing the high recurrence rate of adolescent depression. Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), an integrative therapy, can effectively alleviate depressive symptoms, but evidence its effectiveness treating is still insufficient.Objective: The purpose this study was to investigate efficacy EMDR combination with medication depressed adolescents.Methods: A total 30 were recruited randomly divided into two groups: co-treated SSRI or used alone. intervention group received standardised treatment. primary outcome indicators 17-item Hamilton Depression Scale (HAMD-17) Impact Events (IES-R), while secondary outcomes Ruminative Responses (RRS) Rosenberg Self-Esteem (SES).Results: In end, people completed experiment, 15 from each control groups. three times a week for 2 weeks, 6 sessions, lasting 60 min. Repeated measures ANOVA revealed significant interaction between time on children's HAMD-17, IES-R, RRS scores (all p < .05). Linear mixed models that increasing IES-R score associated increase levels (estimate value = 0.104, .019), SES decrease -0.298, .021).Conclusions: Incorporating add-on therapy reduce degree impact patients, as well symptoms rumination thinking.
