This title is an essential resource for clinicians who wish to begin utilizing DBS, as well as current practitioners seeking to improve their understanding and application of the technique. Highly illustrated and in full color throughout, this comprehensive book covers the key aspects of DBS practice, including patient selection, device programming and activation to achieve optimum symptom control, long-term management, and troubleshooting. With contributions from some of the most experienced clinical leaders in the field of DBS and extremely practical content, this is an essential reference text for any clinician working with DBS patients.

Reviews

'I recommend this textbook, which is, to my knowledge, the first of its kind to provide a practical guide to the clinical management of movement disorders in patients with implanted neurostimulators. The book will make a useful addition to the libraries of specialists in movement disorders and general neurologists, and help to train residents and nurses in this specialty.'

Jens Volkmann Source: The Lancet

'… will be a very practical guide and resource for providers who treat patients with deep brain stimulation. The paper quality and colorful illustrations are first rate. The breakout boxes throughout the chapters that summarize the take-home points are reader friendly and very helpful for quick scanning.'
