Overcoming Stimulation-Related Side Effects And Improving Outcome By Proper Programing Of Subthalamic Stimulation Of Parkinson’s Disease: Cases Report
Objective: We reported three cases of subthalamic deep brain stimulation (STN-DBS) of Parkinson’s disease (PD), with successful management of challenging issues during programing. Background: Proper…PF-QII Analysis of Deep Brain Stimulation versus Levodopa-carbidopa Intestinal Gel: Real-world Differences in Patient Characteristics and Quality of Life Outcomes
Objective: To evaluate differences in demographics, disease characteristics, quality of life (QOL), and caregiver burden (CB) between deep brain stimulation (DBS) and levodopa-carbidopa intestinal gel…Cultural disparities in deep brain stimulation (DBS) decision making in patients with Parkinson’s disease (PD): Updates
Objective: To identify socio-cultural factors that affect when DBS is initially discussed with patients in a tertiary Movement Disorders center, and how these factors impact…Twiddler’s Syndrome in Deep Brain Stimulation
Objective: We describe a case of Twiddler’s syndrome in a patient who underwent DBS surgery. Background: Twiddler’s syndrome was first described in 1968 in cardiac…Using increase in Impedance as a pointer for an early detection of DBS hardware infection
Objective: To analyze the pattern of changing electrical impedance across the contacts of a DBS Lead after a Staphylococcus biofilm formation in an experimental model. Background: The…The Subthalamic Fasciculus and Connectivity Profiling of Stimulation-induced Dyskinesia following Pallidal DBS in Parkinson’s Disease
Objective: To identify anatomical regions related to stimulation-induced dyskinesia (SID) following pallidal deep brain stimulation (DBS) in Parkinson’s disease (PD) and to analyze structural and…Gpi Deep Brain Stimulation After Many Years of Subthalamic Nucleus Stimulation: Case Report
Objective: Management of motor complications after subthalamic nucleus (STN) deep brain stimulation (DBS) with globus pallidus interna (Gpi) stimulation. Background: Deep brain stimulation is an…Persistent head dyskinesias following STN DBS in Parkinson’s disease resolve using directionality
Objective: To control subthalamic nucleus deep brain stimulation (STN DBS) induced dyskinesias in Parkinson's disease (PD) using directionality. Background: Levodopa-induced dyskinesias (LID) frequently occur in…Neuropathological Changes Following PPN Region DBS
Objective: To examine neuropathological changes surrounding deep brain stimulation (DBS) electrode in pedunculopontine nucleus (PPN) region. Background: Freezing of gait (FOG) in Parkinson’s disease (PD)…Correlation of Lead Location with Clinical Outcomes in a Double-Blinded Randomized Controlled Trial Evaluating Subthalamic Deep Brain Stimulation in Parkinson’s Disease (INTREPID)
Objective: To assess the relationship between lead location in the subthalamic nucleus (STN) and deep brain stimulation (DBS) outcomes as reported in the INTREPID clinical…
