Until now, patients suffering from brain injuries require Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation with a method that non-invasively stimulates and studies the cerebral cortex which is large enough to produce the release of action potentials. Objective: The aim of the research is to determine the effect of providing transmagnetic stimulation therapy on improving post-stroke depression. Method: This research design uses a Nonequivalent control group design, where there are 2 groups, namely a control group and an intervention group, each group is measured 2 times, then the level of improvement in depression is assessed using the Hamilton depression rating scale score. Results: The results obtained for the control group were 0.302 > 0.05 and the significant value for the intervention group was 0.000 < 0.05. Conclusion: it can be concluded that there is a significant difference between the average post test score of the control group and the average post test score of the intervention group.
