A Comparison of Vagal Nerve Stimulation and Responsive Neurostimulation for the Treatment of Medically Refractory Complex Partial Epilepsy.

open access: yes, 2018
BACKGROUND: Neuromodulatory applications such as vagus nerve stimulation (VNS) and responsive neurostimulation (RNS) are safe and effective strategies for medically intractable epilepsy secondary to complex partial seizures, but researchers have yet to ...

Pulvinar responsive neurostimulation for posterior quadrant epilepsy: an illustrative case with connectome projection

open access: yes
Objective To present the rationale for targeting the thalamic pulvinar nucleus with Responsive Neurostimulation (RNS) in refractory epilepsy involving the posterior quadrant, supported by connectome-based analysis and a rare illustrative case of a ...

The Importance of Impedance: A Case of Responsive Neurostimulation Failure Characterized by Concurrent Stereoelectroencephalography.

open access: yes
Epilepsy neuromodulation treatment failure is a significant challenge, with multiple possible causes. The responsive neurostimulation (RNS) system delivers stimulation from a single current source, and the relative flow of the electrical current through ...

Multiple subpial transections with concomitant responsive neurostimulation of the insula: illustrative case.

open access: yes
BACKGROUND: Focal epilepsy arising from the eloquent cortex can be treated with palliative surgical interventions such as multiple subpial transection (MST) or responsive neurostimulation (RNS).

The effect of responsive neurostimulation (RNS) on neuropsychiatric and psychosocial outcomes in drug-resistant epilepsy

Epilepsy & Behavior, 2023
The impact of responsive neurostimulation (RNS) on neuropsychiatric and psychosocial outcomes has not been extensively evaluated outside of the original clinical trials and post-approval studies. The goal of this study was to ascertain the potential real-world effects of RNS on cognitive, psychiatric, and quality of life (QOL) outcomes in relation to ...

75 Mood and Quality of Life after Responsive Neurostimulation (RNS) in Epilepsy Patients

Journal of the International Neuropsychological Society, 2023
Objective:Poor mood and quality of life is common among patients with medically intractable seizures. Many of these patients are not candidates for seizure focus resection and continue to receive standard medical care. Responsive neurostimulation (RNS) has been an effective approach to reduce seizure frequency for nonsurgical candidates.

The RNS System: brain-responsive neurostimulation for the treatment of epilepsy

Expert Review of Medical Devices, 2020
Introduction: Epilepsy affects more than 1% of the US population, and over 30% of adults with epilepsy do not respond to antiseizure medications without life-impacting medication-related side effects. Resection of the seizure focus is not an option for many patients because it would cause unacceptable neurological or cognitive harm. For these patients,

Seizure outcome with responsive neurostimulation (RNS) comparing strip versus depth leads

Epilepsy & Behavior, 2020
This study aimed to compare seizure outcomes and complication rates in patients treated with only responsive neurostimulation (RNS) strip leads with those treated with only RNS depth leads.A retrospective cohort study was performed using the institutional epilepsy surgery database.

36 Impact of Neuropsychological Performance and Anxiety on Meditation in Drug Resistant Epilepsy (DRE) Patients Implanted with a Responsive Neurostimulation (RNS) Device

Journal of the International Neuropsychological Society, 2023
Objective:Responsive neurostimulation (RNS) is a surgical intervention to reduce the frequency of seizures as an adjunctive therapy for patients with drug-resistant epilepsy (DRE). Presurgical neuropsychological evaluations capture symptoms of anxiety and depression, which occur in higher rates within the epilepsy population than in the general ...

Novel Use of Responsive Neurostimulation (RNS System) in the Treatment of Super Refractory Status Epilepticus

Journal of Clinical Neurophysiology, 2019
Summary: There are very few randomized controlled trials studying treatment of super refractory status epilepticus (SE), despite estimated occurrence in about 15% of SE cases and its association with high morbidity and mortality rates. Small case series and case reports have described use of neurostimulation, including vagal nerve stimulation,
