Effect of Directional Deep Brain Stimulation on Sensory Thresholds in Parkinson’s Disease

Effect of Directional Deep Brain Stimulation on Sensory Thresholds in Parkinson’s Disease

ObjectivePrevious studies showed that deep brain stimulation (DBS) relieves pain symptoms in Parkinson disease (PD) patients when programmed for motor-symptom relief. One factor involved in pain processing is sensory perception of stimuli. With the advent of directional leads, we explore whether dir...
