Deep Brain Stimulation: How It Works

Video Overview & Insights

Researchers are exploring applications for deep brain stimulation beyond treatment for Parkinson's disease. Here's how it works. Graphic: Adele Morgan/The Wall Street Journal

My dad just had this done in the Netherlands. It's trule amazing. He went in at 8, got out of surgery at 12, woke up an hour later and walked out of the hospital the next day before lunch and is now home. Now waiting for a few weeks and they'll turn it on to start finetuning.

I think we should use brainwashing to delete any thoughts of advertising and marketing from YouTubers brains. It disgusts me that anybody on this planet thinks they deserve a paycheck just for talking. Like, congratulations on your existence. GET A JOB if you want money. It’s not my responsibility to fund your life by watching advertisements.

I was diagnosed 2018 with epilepsy and had a RNS put in. Helped amazingly but I’m having seizures on the other side of the brain and now I’m in the spotlight on what to get to help. Due to heart issues during eeg monitoring stays my heart rate was dropping so my neurologist mentioned this since VNS is too close to the heart and later on I may need a pacemaker or stint so he said dbs, another rns or zap and scoop if possible the damaged area

I love this video on DBS. I would like information on how to use this video in my short presentation on DBS to my colleagues as part of my yearly project.

This surgery is not rosy as it sounds. My father had it. He couldn't even swallow water after surgery. Lost his walking ability mostly and caught an infection during battery replacement. Entire DBS had to be removed to cure the infection. They decided it was too risky to put it back. Now he cant talk or walk and bed ridden for the rest of his life thanks to DBS. He flew to the surgery on his own. Even doctors dont understand how this works. They will blame it on decease progression if something goes wrong. He felt like robot during the time he had DBS. At least he feels human now. Dont make your life more complicated during the last stages of your life with this these gadgets.

Interesting. There's now work being done to improve deep brain stimulation to adapt and respond to an individual's brain activity depending on their current state. We interviewed the director of NIH's BRAIN Initiative about this work - it is fascinating!

Unfortunately the implantation itself causes gliosis (lesions) within the brain matter. Far from perfect methodology.

I know a few people who could use this. My Dad died of Huntington Chorea so many years ago in 2013. My husband has Huntington. Also I dated a few men who suffered many years from alcohol and they could all use treatment. 🐾🦇😋😮😞😷🤒😳
