OUD DBS
This is a single arm study. Participants will be followed in an inpatient service for two weeks to gather baseline data followed by DBS placement and up to 6 weeks inpatient for clinical stabilization and DBS titration. All participants will then be followed twice a week for 12 weeks in the outpatient setting and then once a week for a total of 52 weeks post-titration.
Deep Brain Simulator: This is an open-label, safety, tolerability, and feasibility study for participants who have treatment refractory OUD that are eligible to have DBS targeting the NAc/VC.
