Research Abstract |
We have examined the usefulness of dual-lead stimulation in cerebrospinal stimulation therapy. Dual-lead cervical spinal cord stimulation(SCS) was useful for the treatment of post-stroke pain. Dual-lead stimulation of thalamic Vim/Vop and subthalamic area showed remarkable suppression of intractable tremor. Dual-lead thalamic Vc nucleus stimulation was useful for the treatment of neuropathic pain. Dual-lead Motor cortex stimulation(MCS) could be a new therapeutic approach to improving motor performance after stroke by attenuating rigidity and/or spasticity. However, it may be important to define the appropriate number of hours and conditions of daily MCS.
