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, 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.

Mechanisms of Action of Deep Brain Stimulation (DBS)

Neuroscience and 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.

Brain Tissue Reaction to Deep Brain Stimulation—A Longitudinal Study of DBS in the Goettingen Minipig

Neuromodulation, 2017
The use of Deep Brain Stimulation (DBS) in treatment of various brain disorders is constantly growing; however, the number of studies of the reaction of the brain tissue toward implanted leads is still limited. Therefore, the aim of our study was to analyze the impact of DBS leads on brain tissue in a large animal model using minipigs.Twelve female ...

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,

Deep Brain Stimulator (DBS) Artifact in the EEG of a Pediatric Patient

Clinical EEG and Neuroscience, 2023
We report the first case of deep brain stimulator (DBS) artifact in the EEG of a pediatric patient. Our case is a 7-year-old male with bilateral globus pallidus interna (GPi) DBS for whom the EEG recorded a rhythmic 7.5 Hz theta activity on EEG related to DBS artifact. This artifact was also appreciated as a monochromatic invariable frequency band over

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.

Development and validation of the deep brain stimulation impairment scale (DBS-IS)

Parkinsonism & Related Disorders, 2017
Bilateral deep brain stimulation of the subthalamic nucleus (STN-DBS) has considerable influence on motor and non-motor symptoms in Parkinson's disease (PD). While improvements in motor functioning can be easily assessed with general quality of life questionnaires, the measurement of specific STN-DBS-associated impairments often remains insufficient ...

Considerations in deep brain stimulation (DBS) for pediatric secondary dystonia

Child's Nervous System, 2017
There is a paucity of effective long-term medication treatment for secondary dystonias. In situations where significantly impairing secondary dystonias fail to respond to typical enteral medications and intrathecal (or even intraventricular) baclofen, consideration should be given to the use of deep brain stimulation (DBS).
