Background
Pallidal deep brain stimulation (DBS) effectively alleviates symptoms in dystonia patients, but may induce movement slowness as a side‐effect. In Parkinson's disease, hypokinetic symptoms have been associated with increased beta oscillations (13–30 Hz). We hypothesize that this pattern is symptom‐specific, thus accompanying DBS‐induced slowness in dystonia.
Methods
In 6 dystonia patients,...
Pallidal deep brain stimulation (DBS) is an effective treatment for patients with primary dystonia leading to a substantial reduction of symptom severity. However, stimulation induced side effects such as bradykinesia have also been reported recently. The influence of stimulation parameters on such side effects have not yet been systemically assessed in these patients.Here we tested the effect of...
