No results posted yet for this study

Summary

In this study, the investigators will monitor extracellular neurotransmitter levels using a probe that is able to perform real time electrochemical detection during deep brain stimulation surgery. The overall question this study is designed to answer is: Are there neurotransmitters released during deep brain stimulation?

Conditions

Interventions

DEVICE

WINCS

The experimental protocol will involve, after implantation of the DBS electrodes, the patient will have a single electrochemical recording electrode will be implanted along the same trajectory path as the electrophysiology and the DBS electrode
