Treatment of Multi-Focal Epilepsy With Resective Surgery Plus Responsive Neurostimulation (RNS): One Institution's Experience [PDF]

Frontiers in Neurology, 2020
Objective: Patients with medically refractory focal epilepsy can be difficult to treat surgically, especially if invasive monitoring reveals multiple ictal onset zones. Possible therapeutic options may include resection, neurostimulation, laser ablation,

Responsive neurostimulation (RNS) programming

Neurotherapeutics
Programming of RNS is an iterative process involving a logical progression of patient-specific electrocorticographic biomarker detections that inform stepwise progression of stimulation parameters.

Magnetoencephalography (MEG) Data Processing in Epilepsy Patients with Implanted Responsive Neurostimulation (RNS) Devices

Brain Sciences
Drug-resistant epilepsy (DRE) is often treated with surgery or neuromodulation. Specifically, responsive neurostimulation (RNS) is a widely used therapy that is programmed to detect abnormal brain activity and intervene with tailored stimulation. Despite

The Efficacy, Safety, and Outcomes of Brain‐responsive Neurostimulation (RNS® System) therapy in older adults [PDF]

Epilepsia Open, 2021
Objectives The gold standard for the management of drug‐resistant focal epilepsy (DRE) is resection of epileptogenic zone. However, some patients may not be candidates for resection.

Sleep disruption is not observed with brain‐responsive neurostimulation for epilepsy [PDF]

Epilepsia Open, 2020
Objective Neurostimulation devices that deliver electrical impulses to the nervous system are widely used to treat seizures in patients with medically refractory epilepsy, but the effects of these therapies on sleep are incompletely understood.

Responsive Neurostimulation System (RNS) in setting of cranioplasty and history of multiple craniotomies

Interdisciplinary Neurosurgery, 2016
Introduction: Stereoelectroencephalography (SEEG) and subdural grids (SDG) are both effective options for localizing the ictal onset zone in patients with frequent seizures.

Trigeminal paresthesia secondary to responsive neurostimulation (RNS) lead migration [PDF]

Surgical Neurology International, 2021
Background: The responsive neurostimulation system (RNS) is used in patients with drug-resistant epilepsy who are not candidates for surgical resection of a seizure focus. As a relatively new therapy option, the adverse effects of long-term implantation are still being clarified. We present a series of two patients who presented with similar symptoms

Evidence of state-dependence in the effectiveness of responsive neurostimulation for seizure modulation

Brain Stimulation, 2021
Background: An implanted device for brain-responsive neurostimulation (RNS® System) is approved as an effective treatment to reduce seizures in adults with medically-refractory focal epilepsy.

Electrodiagnostic artifacts due to neurostimulation devices for drug resistant epilepsy

Epilepsy & Behavior Reports, 2022
Background: Neurostimulation devices including vagus nerve stimulation (VNS), deep brain stimulation (DBS), and responsive neurostimulation (RNS) are approved therapeutic options for drug resistant epilepsy (DRE).

Clinical outcomes following responsive neurostimulation implantation: a single center experience

Frontiers in Neurology, 2023
BackgroundResponsive neurostimulation (RNS) is an implantable device for persons with medically refractory focal-onset epilepsy. We report a single-center experience for RNS outcomes with special focus on stereoelectroencephalography (sEEG) for seizure ...
