摘要:
The effect of stimulation frequency for pallidal deep
brain stimulation in five patients with either generalized or
segmental dystonia was evaluated three to twelve months
postoperatively via a randomized, double-blind paradigm. The
quality of life and the severity of dystonic symptoms improved
by approximately 60% and 43% respectively using a frequency of
130 Hz. Compared with 130 Hz a significant further clinical
improvement was observed at frequencies of 180 and 250 Hz, which
contrasted with a significant deterioration at lower frequencies
(5, 50 Hz) compared to 130 Hz.
