Summary

Deep Brain Stimulation (DBS) is an effective therapy for patients with medically refractory primary dystonia. However, DBS programming for dystonia is not standardized and multiple clinic visits are frequently required to adequately control symptoms. We aim to longitudinally record brain signals from patients using a novel neurostimulator that can record brain signals. We will correlate brain signals to clinical severity scores to identify pathological rhythms in the absence of DBS, and we will study the effects of DBS on these signals in order to guide clinical programming. We are going to recruit patients who receive the Medtronic Percept device, which allows for brain signal recordings (this feature is FDA approved). The investigators will be conducting an observational study using this device to collect data that the subjects receive as standard of care.

Interventions

DEVICE

Deep brain stimulation (DBS)

Deep brain stimulation is an FDA approved therapy that involves surgical implantation of electrodes in deep brain targets and an implantable pulse generator delivers electrical pulses.
