Grant Activity:
Enabling clinicians to optimise outcomes with Deep Brain Stimulation for Parkinson's disease
Purpose:
Deep brain stimulation (DBS) alleviates symptoms of Parkinson’s disease, although outcomes are sometimes unsatisfactory. Best therapy is achieved when electrodes are positioned ideally during surgery and DBS is fine-tuned for each patient. Recently we discovered a signal that can be used during surgery to position electrodes accurately and select the most appropriate DBS settings. With an established commercial partner we will develop a system enabling clinicians to optimise DBS for patients.
