Outcomes of a Prospective, Multicenter, International Registry of Deep Brain Stimulation for Parkinson’s Disease
Objective: Here we report the collected outcomes from a large-scale registry of a deep brain stimulation (DBS) system capable of Multiple Independent Current Source Control…Real World Clinical Outcomes Using a Novel Directional Lead from a Multicenter Registry of Deep Brain Stimulation for Parkinson’s Disease
Objective: In this report, initial real-world outcomes using a directional lead with a deep brain stimulation (DBS) system capable of multiple independent current source control…Deep brain stimulation in two patients with immunosuppressive therapy
Objective: To report two patients with a movement disorder who underwent deep brain stimulation under concomitant immunosuppressive treatment. To report two patients with a movement…When and how to stop subthalamic deep brain stimulation in late-stage Parkinson’s disease
Objective: We sought to investigate the percentage of “poor stimulation responders” among late-stage Parkinson's disease (LSPD) patients for elaborating an algorithm to decide whether and…Human STN local field potentials recording and stimulation and sleep response in Parkinson’s disease after deep brain stimulation
Objective: To describe the continuous recording of STN local field potentials (LFPs) and their response to electrical stimulation and sleep in a Parkinson's disease (PD)…Fixed-life or rechargeable battery for deep brain stimulation: A prospective long-term study of patient’s preferences
Objective: The aim of this study was to evaluate patients’ long-term satisfaction with their choice of battery and factors that influence their decision. Background: Deep…Directional versus conventional subthalamic deep brain stimulation for advanced Parkinson’s disease: Short-term outcomes of a pilot study
Objective: To investigate efficacy of STN-DBS via segmented directional leads compared to conventional omnidirectional leads in PD-patients. Background: Recently, novel leads which allow stimulation steering in…Plasticity of frequency dependent tremor control in Parkinson disease (PD) subthalamic nucleus (STN) deep brain stimulation (DBS) implanted individuals
Objective: To document DBS induced frequency parameter neuroplasticity in STN DBS implanted individuals with tremor dominant PD. Background: We have noted the ability to reduce…Reliability and Stability of Programming Directional Deep Brain Stimulation
Objective: To determine the reliability and stability of programming directional deep brain stimulation (d-DBS) systems. Background: Conventional omni-directional deep brain stimulation (o-DBS) of the subthalamic…Comparison of omnidirectional versus unidirectional STN-DBS – Impact on gait and balance in Parkinson’s disease
Objective: This study was designed to compare the effects of bilateral omnidirectional and unisegmental directional deep brain stimulation in the subthalamic nucleus (STN-DBS) on axial…
