Two‐year seizure reduction in adults with medically intractable partial onset epilepsy treated with responsive neurostimulation: Final results of the RNS System Pivotal trial [PDF]
SummaryObjectiveTo demonstrate the safety and effectiveness of responsive stimulation at the seizure focus as an adjunctive therapy to reduce the frequency of seizures in adults with medically intractable partial onset seizures arising from one or two seizure foci.MethodsRandomized multicenter double‐blinded controlled trial of responsive focal ...

Responsive neurostimulation targeting anterior thalamic nucleus in generalized epilepsy
Responsive neurostimulation (RNS) has emerged as an adjunctive treatment modality for patients with intractable focal epilepsy who are not surgical candidates or have more than one ictal onset focus.

Centromedian thalamic responsive neurostimulation for Lennox‐Gastaut epilepsy and autism
The RNS System is not approved in patients under 18, although a critical need for novel treatment modalities in this vulnerable population persist. We present two pediatric patients with drug‐resistant epilepsy secondary to Lennox‐Gastaut Syndrome (LGS ...

Abstract BACKGROUND Responsive neurostimulation (RNS) is a closed-loop neurostimulation modality for treating intractable epilepsy in patients who are not candidates for resection. In the past, implantation of depth electrodes was done through a transoccipital approach that transverses the hippocampus. There have been

Responsive Neurostimulation of the Thalamus for the Treatment of Refractory Epilepsy
IntroductionOne-third of patients with epilepsy continue to have seizures despite antiepileptic medications. Some of these refractory patients may not be candidates for surgical resection primarily because the seizure onset zones (SOZs) involve both ...
