Title: Device for treating patients by brain stimulation, electronic component and use of the device and electronic component in medicine and medical treatment method
Inventor: TASS PETER
IPC: A61N1/36
Filed: 2005-04-23
Granted: 2012-12-18
Abstract: The invention relates to a device for treating patients by brain stimulation, an electronic component and a use of the device and of the electronic component in medicine.     According to the prior art, brain electrodes are used for continuous stimulation for treating patients. In this connection it is particularly disadvantageous that the continuous high-frequency stimulation, as an unphysiological, that is to say unnatural input in the area of the brain, for example of the thalamus or of the basal ganglia, can lead to the adaptation of the nerve cell populations affected in the course of a few years. To achieve the same stimulation result, stimulation with higher stimulus amplitude must then be used due to this adaptation. According to the invention, these disadvantages are eliminated by providing a device which comprises: at least one electrode capable of stimulating a brain region in which pathologically synchronous neuronal activity is present; at least one sensor to measure an electrical signal; and control means for detecting the occurrence of a pathological feature of the electrical signal which was measured by the at least one sensor and, when the pathological feature occurs, is capable of delivering to the at least one electrode a first short high--frequency pulse train to control dynamics of neurons of a stimulated neuron population, followed by a second short high-frequency pulse train to desynchronize the neurons of the stimulated neuron population, wherein the first short high-frequency pulse train has a higher amplitude than the second short high-frequency pulse train.
