Mechanisms of action of deep brain stimulation (DBS)

Neuroscience & Biobehavioral Reviews, 2008
Deep brain stimulation (DBS) is remarkably effective for a range of neurological and psychiatric disorders that have failed pharmacological and cell transplant therapies. Clinical investigations are underway for a variety of other conditions. Yet, the therapeutic mechanisms of action are unknown.

DEEP BRAIN STIMULATION (DBS)

INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF SCIENTIFIC RESEARCH, 2023
It is a Neurosurgical intervention which involves the placement of a medical device called as a Neurostimulator, which sends the electrical impulses, through the implanted electrodes, to specic targets in the brain (the brain nucleus), which will be benecial for the treatment of movement disorders like Parkinson's disease, essential tremor, dystonia,

The ethics of deep brain stimulation (DBS)

Medicine, Health Care and Philosophy, 2015
Deep brain stimulation (DBS) is an invasive technique designed to stimulate certain deep brain regions for therapeutic purposes and is currently used mainly in patients with neurodegenerative disorders, such as Parkinson's disease. However, DBS is also used increasingly for other experimental applications, such as the treatment of psychiatric disorders

Socioeconomic Trends in Deep Brain Stimulation (DBS) Surgery

Neuromodulation: Technology at the Neural Interface, 2010
  We evaluated trends in deep brain stimulation (DBS) for the 14-year period from 1993 to 2006.  We utilized the Nationwide Inpatient Sample data base from the Healthcare Cost and Utilization Project, Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality.  A total of 34,792 patients underwent DBS surgery from 1993 to 2006.

Evaluation of Deep Brain Stimulation (DBS) Lead Biomechanical Interaction with Brain Tissue

Annals of Biomedical Engineering, 2022
The current study aims to examine the effect of material properties on implanted leads used for deep brain stimulation (DBS) using finite element (FE) analysis to investigate brain deformation around an implanted DBS lead in response to daily head accelerations.
