Coronary artery vasospasm during awake deep brain stimulation surgery.
Although vasospasm usually occurs in the presence of normal coronary arteries, its clinical course is indistinguishable from coronary ischaemia, and actual myocardial damage frequently occurs, as demonstrated by ECG changes and troponin rises seen in such cases. Spasm can be promptly and effectively treated if recognized early, and treatment with nitrate therapy is often sufficient to abolish s...
متن کاملOptical measurements for guidance during deep brain stimulation surgery
Deep brain stimulation (DBS) is an established treatment for Parkinson’s disease and related movement disorders. The success of DBS is highly dependent on electrode location, electrical parameter settings and the surgical procedure. In this paper an overview of the current status of optical measurements for intracerebral guidance performed during DBS implantation is presented. Laser Doppler per...
متن کاملIntra-operative behavioral tasks in awake humans undergoing deep brain stimulation surgery.
Deep brain stimulation (DBS) is a surgical procedure that directs chronic, high frequency electrical stimulation to specific targets in the brain through implanted electrodes. Deep brain stimulation was first implemented as a therapeutic modality by Benabid et al. in the late 1980s, when he used this technique to stimulate the ventral intermediate nucleus of the thalamus for the treatment of tr...
متن کاملAwake versus Asleep Deep Brain Stimulation Surgery: Technical Considerations and Critical Review of the Literature
Advancements in neuroimaging have led to a trend toward direct, image-based targeting under general anesthesia without the use of microelectrode recording (MER) or intraoperative test stimulation, also referred to as "asleep" deep brain stimulation (DBS) surgery. Asleep DBS, utilizing imaging in the form of intraoperative computed tomography (iCT) or magnetic resonance imaging (iMRI), has demon...
متن کاملPresurgical Rehearsals for Patients Considering “Awake” Deep Brain Stimulation
Simulated surgical environments are rapidly gaining adoption in training students, residents, and members of specialized surgical teams. However, minimal attention has been given to the use of simulated surgical environments to educate patients on surgical processes, particularly procedures that require the active participation of the patient. "Awake" neurosurgery provides a unique situation in...
