Deep Brain Stimulation (DBS) at CET CONSULT & Baskent Hospital
At CET CONSULT, we offer advanced Deep Brain Stimulation (DBS) procedures in partnership with Baskent Hospital in Turkey. Our cutting-edge DBS treatments help regulate abnormal brain activity associated with movement disorders such as Parkinson’s disease, essential tremor, and dystonia. With a seamless, patient-focused approach from pre-operative evaluation to post-operative follow-up, we ensure you receive world-class neuromodulation care tailored to your needs.
What Is Deep Brain Stimulation (DBS)?
Deep Brain Stimulation is a minimally invasive surgical procedure that involves implanting electrodes in specific regions of the brain to deliver controlled electrical impulses. These impulses help regulate abnormal brain activity, significantly reducing symptoms such as tremors, stiffness, and involuntary movements.
Pre-Operative Procedures
- Neurological Evaluation:
We conduct a comprehensive neurological assessment that includes motor function tests and advanced imaging studies (MRI, CT scans) to accurately pinpoint target areas in the brain. - Patient Preparation:
Detailed pre-operative discussions help adjust medications and determine whether DBS will be performed with the patient awake or under sedation. This preparation is crucial for optimizing electrode placement. - Pre-Surgical Planning:
Utilizing stereotactic techniques, our team maps the brain to ensure precise electrode placement, which is vital for the effectiveness of the treatment. - Counseling:
We provide in-depth counseling to educate you about the procedure, its benefits, and potential risks (such as infection or bleeding), ensuring you feel informed and confident in your treatment plan.
The DBS Procedure
During the DBS surgery, electrodes are implanted into specific regions of the brain using minimally invasive techniques. The device, similar to a pacemaker, is then programmed to deliver precise electrical impulses that regulate abnormal brain activity, thereby reducing the motor symptoms associated with movement disorders.
Post-Operative Care & Recovery
- Immediate Monitoring:
After the procedure, you will be monitored in the hospital for 1–2 days to ensure your stability and to fine-tune the stimulation settings. - Programming Sessions:
Multiple follow-up sessions are scheduled to adjust the device settings, optimizing symptom control based on your individual response. - Rehabilitation:
A tailored rehabilitation program, including physical therapy, is implemented to monitor functional improvements and assist in your recovery. - Ongoing Adjustments:
Regular check-ups allow for non-invasive adjustments to the stimulation parameters, ensuring the treatment remains effective as your condition evolves.
