The goal is to establish another anatomical referencing system in order to achieve an even higher accuracy when implanting stimulation electrodes.
The aim of this study is to assess the feasibility of deep brain stimulation for refractory trigeminal neuralgia due to a pontine lesion, as is usually seen in the context of multiple sclerosis. These patients usually have severe intractable facial pain and current medical and surgical options generally fail to …
This objective of this study is to document the safety and feasibility of electrical stimulation of the deep cerebellar nuclei for refractory tremor using the Medtronic Percept RC Deep Brain Stimulation System. The population will consist of patients that have either failed a prior intervention (Vim DBS or HIFU thalamotomy) …
The purpose of this study is to see if mental functions take place during different levels of anesthesia using two commonly used drug (propofol and dexmedetomidine) and will include low-intensity focused ultrasound pulsation (LIFUP) to stimulate specific areas of the brain while undergoing functional Magnetic Resonance Imaging (fMRI or "brain …
The objective of the CLOSE-PD study is to compare the efficacy of adaptive deep brain stimulation (aDBS) with continue deep brain stimulation (cDBS) in patients with Parkinson's disease. The main question it aims to answer is: \- whether the change in daily mean ON time without troublesome dyskinesia in aDBS …
The goal of this observational study is to identify factors in blood that are associated with response to deep brain stimulation (DBS) surgery in patients with Parkinson's disease. The main questions it aims to answer are: What factors in blood (proteins and RNA) are associated with good vs poor response …
Deep brain stimulation (DBS) is used to treat epilepsy in cases where patients are medically refractory and are not candidates for surgical resection. This therapy has been shown to be effective in seizure reduction, yet very few patients achieve the ultimate goal of seizure freedom. Implantable neural stimulators (INSs) have …
Upper-extremity impairment after stroke remains a major therapeutic challenge and a target of neuromodulation treatment efforts.In this open-label, randomized phase I trial, we applied deep brain stimulation to the cerebellar dentate nucleus combined with bilateral or unilateral stimulation. Vagus nerve stimulation was also conducted for motor function after ischaemic Stroke.We …
This study will include two parts. The first part will include two patients in a non-blinded, non-randomized, open trial. They will undergo Deep Bran Stimulation (DBS) for OCD (targeting the amSTN), as clinically accepted and approved in Israel (by the MOH) and in other countries in Europe and the US. …
Under regional anesthesia, subthalamic nucleus deep brain stimulation (STN-DBS) has proven to be an effective therapeutic approach for improving motor symptoms in Parkinson's disease. However, a significant portion of Parkinson's disease (PD) patients is unable to cooperate with the surgery, necessitating the use of awake sedation. Nevertheless, the administration of …
