Choice for deep brain stimulation in Parkinson’s disease: Italian survey study
Objective: To assess how (Deep Brain Stimulation) DBS is considered by Italian PD patients. Background: DBS improves motor symptoms and allows to reduce dopaminergic medications…Surgery-, hardware – and chronic stimulation-related adverse events following subthalamic nucleus deep brain stimulation for Parkinson’s disease
Objective: To evaluate the adverse events (AEs) following subthalamic nucleus (STN) deep brain stimulation (DBS) for Parkinson’s disease (PD) during 6 years period. Background: The…Poor responders to STN DBS in Parkinson’s disease: 1 year follow-up study
Objective: To determine which factors contribute to a poor outcome at 1 year after Deep Brain Stimulation (DBS) of the Subthalamic Nucleus (STN). Background: The…A prospective MRI study of edema surrounding deep brain stimulation leads
Objective: The purpose of our study is to define the incidence and the magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) characteristics of peri-electrode edema in a cohort of…A wireless brain-spine interface alleviating gait deficits of non-human primates model of Parkinson’s disease
Objective: While levodopa and deep brain stimulation alleviate most of the symptoms associated with Parkinson's Disease (PD), axial gait disorders are less responsive to these…Patient’s Choice of Device-Based Treatments in Parkinson’s Disease
Objective: Deep brain stimulation of subtalamic nucleus (STN-DBS), subcutaneous apomorphine infusion (APO) and levodopa-carbidopa intestinal gel infusion (DUO) is routinely used in patients with advanced…8-Contact Multiple Independent Current Control vs. 4-Contact Standard Deep Brain Stimulation of Subthalamus in Parkinson’s disease: a Double-blind Cross-over Trial
Objective: To explore the hypothesis that flexible stimulation (multiple independent current control over 8 contacts/hemisphere) is superior to standard stimulation (standard stimulation over 4 contacts)…Intraparenchymal Cyst Formation: A Rare Complication of Deep Brain Stimulation
Objective: Intraparenchymal cyst formation after Deep Brain Stimulation (DBS) surgery is a rare complication. There are only 8 cases reported in the literature. We report…Attitudes toward earlier use of deep brain stimulation among patients with Parkinson’s disease
Objective: To explore Parkinson’s patient experiences with Deep Brain Stimulation (DBS) and attitudes towards earlier use of DBS. Background: In November 2015 the U.S. Food…Deep brain stimulation for monogenic Parkinson’s disease: A systematic review
Objective: The aim was to systematically investigate the outcome of deep brain stimulation (DBS) in genetic Parkinson’s disease (PD) compared to the patients with documented…
