“Dual Frequency” Deep Brain Stimulation Paradigm for Axial Symptoms in Parkinson’s Disease
Objective: To report the outcome of a DBS paradigm aimed at reducing axial symptoms after prolonged STN DBS. Background: High frequency stimulation (HFS) is more effective…Correlation of local field potentials (LFPs) to electromyography (EMG) of the rostral zona incerta (rZI) and subthalamic nucleus (STN) in Parkinson’s Disease (PD)
Objective: To provide a proof of concept of correlating LFPs to EMG during multi tasks in PD subtypes. Background: Evidence highlights the unique contributions of…Long term outcome of STN-DBS for Parkinson Disease patients using Directional mode setting programs
Objective: To survey the long term effectiveness of the directional mode setting programs for Parkinson Disease patients with Subthalamic Deep Brain Stimulation (STN-DBS). Background: Background:…Effects of deep brain stimulation of the subthalamic nucleus on the postoperative levodopa response: one year follow up
Objective: In this study, we planned to research the effect of preoperative levodopa response to postoperative levodopa response and clinical outcome. Background: Deep brain stimulation…Directional Deep Brain Stimulation Lead Implantation: A Single Center Experience
Objective: The authors’ experience with implantation of the first 100 patients implanted with Abbott St. Jude Medical Infinity™ DBS lead system. Background: The introduction of…Local anesthesia vs general anesthesia in STN-dDBS operation: a clinical comparison of the outcome of patients with advanced Parkinson’s disease
Objective: To compare clinical outcome of patients with Parkinson’s disease (PD) treated with directional deep brain (dDBS) stimulation undergoing subthalamic deep brain stimulation operation (STN-DBS)…Analysis from genotype to phenotype: Improvement in freezing of gait after subthalamic deep brain stimulation (STN-DBS) in a Parkinson’s disease patient with copy number variations of Parkin gene.
Objective: To report a Parkinson’s disease (PD) patient with homozygous and heterozygous copy number variations of Parkin gene, showing greatly improvement in freezing of gait…VIM stimulation for refractory tremor -the Sheba experience
Objective: This study describes our center's experience with 26 patients who underwent surgery for thalamic ventral intermediate nucleus (VIM) stimulation between years 2008-2018 Background: Deep-brain…Shower Shock: Directional Lead Malfunction in a Patient with Vim DBS
Objective: To report the occurrence of lead failure in a directional DBS system. Background: Lead failure is a known complications of DBS systems. However, the…Initial programming in STN-DBS for Parkinson’s disease: Standard vs. Steered Stimulation
Objective: To evaluate, in patients with Parkinson’s disease (PD) undergoing subthalamic deep brain stimulation (STN-DBS), two methods for the initial programming of directional leads. Background:…
