Early outcome of subthalamic nucleus deep brain stimulation (STN-DBS) in advanced parkinson disease in first trial of Iranian patients
Abstract Background: To improve the debilitating features of Parkinson disease (PD) different medical and surgical approaches are available. Subthalamic nucleus deep brain stimulation (STN-DBS) was appeared to be a promising method during last two decades. This study aimed to evaluate early motor outcomes of this procedure in first trial of Iranian patients . Methods: Thirty-seven...
متن کاملImpact of STN-DBS on life and health satisfaction in patients with Parkinson's disease.
OBJECTIVE Advanced Parkinson's disease (PD) is associated with various motor and non-motor symptoms which adversely impact health-related quality of life (HRQoL). Subthalamic nucleus (STN) deep brain stimulation (DBS) has been reported to improve some dimensions of HRQoL in appropriately selected candidates. Prior studies of HRQoL following DBS have used instruments comprising a predetermined l...
متن کاملDoes early verbal fluency decline after STN implantation predict long-term cognitive outcome after STN-DBS in Parkinson's disease?
BACKGROUNDS An early and transient verbal fluency (VF) decline and impairment in frontal executive function, suggesting a cognitive microlesion effect may influence the cognitive repercussions related to subthalamic nucleus deep brain stimulation (STN-DBS). METHODS Neuropsychological tests including semantic and phonemic verbal fluency were administered both before surgery (baseline), the thi...
متن کاملRESEARCH STUDY Controlling Gait Coordination with STN-DBS Improves Freezing of Gait in Parkinson’s disease
Background of the Study Freezing of gait (FOG), or a sudden, brief inability to generate normal stepping movements, is a common symptom of Parkinson’s disease (PD) that affects more than 50% of patients with PD. However, unlike most Parkinson’s symptoms, FOG is resistant to PD medications and the effects of subthalamic nucleus deep brain stimulation (STN-DBS; or therapy that sends electricity t...
متن کاملAnatomical situation of the subthalamic nucleus (STN) from midcommissural point (MCP) in Parkinson\'s disease patients underwent deep brain stimulation (DBS): an MRI targeting study
Abstract Introduction: It is demonstrated that the degree of clinical improvement in Parkinson's disease (PD) achieved by deep brain stimulation (DBS) is largely dependent on the accuracy of lead placement. In addition, individual variability in the situation of subthalamic nucleus (STN) is responsible for spatial inter-individual fluctuations of the real patient's target. Objecti...
