What is DBS?

Deep brain stimulation (DBS) is a surgical therapy used for the treatment of Parkinson’s disease (PD). During DBS surgery, a special wire, called a lead, is inserted into a specific area of the brain. The lead, which has four electrodes, delivers electrical currents to precise brain locations responsible for movement, regulating the abnormal brain cell activity that causes symptoms such as tremor and gait problems

When is DBS Advised?

Deep Brain Stimulation treatment is an option for advanced Parkinson’s Disease patients who fulfill any of the criteria

  • With five doses of medicines, if a patient has 2 hours of ‘off’ period or 1 hour of dyskinesias
