Treatment of Parkinson’s Disease
Brief HistoryBrief History
Deep brain stimulation (DBS) is a surgical treatment involving the implantation of a medical device called Deep brain stimulation (DBS) is a surgical treatment involving the implantation of a medical device called a brain pacemaker, this pacemaker sends electrical impulses to specific parts of the brain. DBS in select a brain pacemaker, this pacemaker sends electrical impulses to specific parts of the brain. DBS in select
brain regions has provided therapeutic benefits for otherwise treatment-resistant movement and brain regions has provided therapeutic benefits for otherwise treatment-resistant movement and affective disorders such as chronic pain, Parkinson's disease, tremor and dystoniaaffective disorders such as chronic pain, Parkinson's disease, tremor and dystonia
