Summary

This study involves the treatment of cognitive impairment secondary to moderate to severe brain injury using central thalamic deep brain stimulation. Although all patients will receive stimulation continuously through a surgically implanted pacemaker-like device, half of the patients will have the device deactivated during a blinded assessment phase. The device will be reactivated following this assessment and patients will have the option to continue stimulation in an open-label continuation.

Conditions

  • TBI (Traumatic Brain Injury)

Interventions

DEVICE

Deep brain stimulation

Delivery of continuous, low-voltage electrical pulses to deep portions of the brain via an implantable pacemaker-like device.
