Coordinated Reset Deep Brain Stimulation of Subthalamic Nucleus Produces Long-Lasting, Dose-Dependent Motor Improvements in the 1-Methyl-4-phenyl-1,2,3,6-tetrahydropyridine Non-Human Primate Model of Parkinsonism

摘要

Background: Novel deep brain stimulation (DBS) paradigms are being explored in an effort to further optimize therapeutic outcome for patients with Parkinson's disease (PD). One approach, termed 'Coordinated Reset' (CR) DBS, was developed to target pathological oscillatory network activity. with desynchronizing effects and associated therapeutic benefit hypothesized to endure beyond cessation of stimulus delivery.
