Deep Brain Stimulation Programming: Mechanisms, Principles and Practice 2nd Edition by Erwin B Montgomery, Jr (PDF)

Description

Deep brain stimulation programming (DBS) continues to grow as an effective therapy for a wide range of neurological and psychiatric disorders, helping patients reach optimal control of their disorder. With the technique finding so much success, the next question is how to make the complexities of post-operative programming cost-effective, especially when traditional medications and treatments can no longer do the job.The second edition of Deep Brain Stimulation Programming is fully revised and up-to-date with the latest technologies and focuses on post-operative programing, which no other text does. This book provides programmers with a foundation of the brain as an electrical device, focusing on the mechanisms by which neurons respond to electrical stimulation, how to control the stimulation and the regional anatomy, and the many variations that influence a patient’s response to DBS. Dr. Montgomery explores new techniques of programming; including those based on stimulation frequency, closed-loop DBS, and the roles of oscillators in DBS; and new technological advances that make pre-existing theories of pathophysiology obsolete.Key Features of the Second Edition Include· Highlights post-operative deep brain stimulation;· Includes the most recent discoveries in deep brain stimulation programming;· Highly illustrated with figures for absorption of key programming and techniques;· Provides an appendix of additional resources available through the Greenville Neuromodulation Center.

User’s Reviews

Reviews from Amazon users which were colected at the time this book was published on the website:

⭐I just had DBS surgery and I wanted to know as much as I could about the subject. I had my first programming session 2 days ago, and it was like a miracle. I am not shuffling or stiff at all and I am entirely amazed at this process.. As far as the book is concerned it is truly a complex book that I am enjoying. The science is moving faster than the current revised edition! I would highly recommend the book and finding out as much as possible about DBS if your suffering with Parkinson’s or other neurological problems that can be helped with this surgery.

⭐I’m a neurologist with special interests in Movement disorders and Dr Montgomery is an authority in the topic. I have all his books. The chapters are practical an we can experience it n our daily practice with DBS patients.

⭐Complex and fascinatingEverything is covered – most interesting is the post programming and testing regimen.
