Quality of life after DBS STN in Parkinson's disease can be related to the stimulation amplitude
Original language description
In certain subset of PD patients the increase of stimulation amplitude has a potential to improve some non-motor functions and thus have an additional effect on quality of life. The recording of QoL should be a routine part of assessments before and after the DBS STN surgery and can even aid during the parameter setting. It appears the parameter selection for some of the patients can be insufficient if based only on the purely motor assessment.
