Interim Analysis of Electrode Position and Motor Outcomes at 6 Months in STN-DBS for Parkinson’s Disease
Objective: Deep brain stimulation (DBS) involves placement of electrodes in the STN followed by stimulation. Outcome of the surgery is dependent on the accuracy of…Motor- and Non-motor Symptoms in Patients Treated with 24-hour Daily Levodopa-Carbidopa Intestinal Gel Infusion: Analysis of the COSMOS Observational Study
Objective: Describe and compare demographic and clinical characteristics, motor, and non-motor symptoms for patients with advanced Parkinson’s disease (APD) by daily duration (<24 hours or…Deep brain stimulation in the treatment of camptocormia in Parkinson’s disease
Objective: To investigate the effect of deep brain stimulation (DBS) in the treatment of camptocormia in patients with Parkinson's disease (PD). Background: Camptocormia is a…Differential patterns of gray matter volume in responders and non-responders with Parkinson’s disease after deep brain stimulation
Objective: To identify the patterns of gray matter volume by voxel-based morphometry (VBM) in responders and non-responders with Parkinson’s disease (PD) after deep brain stimulation…Evaluation of the effect of Bilateral Subthalamic Nucleus Deep Brain Stimulation on fatigue in Parkinson’s disease
Objective: To determine the effect of subthalamic nucleus (STN) deep brain stimulation (DBS) on fatigue in PD patients. Background: Fatigue is a common and disabling…Directional programming in GPi-DBS for Parkinson’s disease and retrospective assessment of UPDRS III outcomes: First clinical case series
Objective: To describe our methodology for directional programming in GPi-DBS for PD and report on retrospective assessment of stable programming settings, energy savings using specific…Levodopa Challenge Test for Prediction of Deep Brain Stimulation Efficacy on Motor Functions for Parkinson’s Disease
Objective: To investigate the correlation between pre-operative response to levodopa following levodopa challenge test and the efficacy of deep brain stimulation (DBS) on motor functions…Impact of Deep Brain Stimulation on Fall Risk
Objective: To compare fall risk in Parkinson’s disease patients with and without deep brain stimulation of the subthalamic nucleus. Background: The prevention of falls is…Focused ultrasound subthalamotomy in Parkinson’s disease: Lesion topography and improvement in cardinal motor features
Objective: To describe the topography of unilateral subthalamic nucleus (STN) lesions performed by magnetic-resonance guided focused ultrasound (MRgFUS) in Parkinson’s disease (PD), and define correlations…The clinical utility of programming method for multi-contact electrodes of deep brain stimulation in Parkinson’s disease
Objective: Consider the clinical utility of programming method for multi-contact electrodes in Parkinson’s disease (PD) from our experiences. Background: Some PD patients with deep brain…
