Optimization of Deep Brain Stimulation Parameters in Patients With Medically Refractory Epilepsy

RecruitingEARLY Phase 1Ages 18 Years - anyAllUniversity of Minnesota

In plain words

What the trial is, and whether it could suit you

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 many parameters that may be adjusted, and could be tuned to achieve very patient specific therapies. This study will develop a platform for stimulation setting optimization based on power spectral density (PSD) measures.
