Abstract
Deep Brain Stimulation (DBS) is an effective strategy in reducing the motor complications in Parkinson's disease (PD) as substantiated by several randomized controlled trials.1-4 This motor improvement has shown to be sustained for up to 10 years.5 Real-world data collected from a wide variety of implanting centers based on standard of care documenting overall improvements in PD disease symptoms, quality of life may facilitate new insights regarding the real-world, clinical use and outcomes of DBS. We present preliminary outcomes from an ongoing prospective, on-label, multicenter outcomes study conducted in the United States of patients with directional Deep Brain Stimulation (DBS) Systems capable of multiple independent current control (MICC) for management of the motor symptoms of levodopa- responsive Parkinson's disease (PD).
