Abstract
Adaptive deep brain stimulation (DBS) improves motor symptoms and quality of life in people with Parkinson disease compared with continuous DBS, the results of a pilot trial suggest. The study included four people with Parkinson disease, each of whom received continuous and adaptive DBS at different times to enable comparison of the effects. Adaptive stimulation was personalized according to motor cortical signals that were identified as biomarkers of fluctuations in motor function. When compared with the effects of continuous stimulation in each individual, adaptive stimulation reduced the time with motor symptoms and improved the participants’ quality of life with respect to normal daily activities.
期刊介绍:
Nature Reviews Neurology aims to be the premier source of reviews and commentaries for the scientific and clinical communities we serve. We want to provide an unparalleled service to authors, referees, and readers, and we work hard to maximize the usefulness and impact of each article. The journal publishes Research Highlights, Comments, News & Views, Reviews, Consensus Statements, and Perspectives relevant to researchers and clinicians working in the field of neurology. Our broad scope ensures that the work we publish reaches the widest possible audience. Our articles are authoritative, accessible, and enhanced with clearly understandable figures, tables, and other display items. This page gives more detail about the aims and scope of the journal.
