Deep Brain Stimulation Therapy for Movement Disorders2
•		 In the United States, there are more than 1 million people living with Parkinson’s disease (PD). 2
•		 Levodopa generally provides smooth and stable benefits for up to 5 years after therapy introduction.3
•		 After this period, patients may experience increasingly troublesome and unpredictable motor fluctuations
and dyskinesias.3
Motor fluctuations and dyskinesias decrease
quality of life for people with Parkinson’s disease1
Iris C.
Benefiting from DBSTherapy since 2008
•		 The delayed “on,” wearing off, and dose failure of levodopa may be due to its impaired absorption, short
half-life, and the loss of striatal dopamine storage capacity.3
•		 When drugs become less reliable, Medtronic DBS Therapy (Deep Brain Stimulation) should be considered
to achieve PD treatment goals.
Treating motor fluctuations and dyskinesias requires moving
beyond standard dopamine replacement therapy3

More than 75,000 patients
globally have been treated
with Medtronic DBS Therapy.
How Medtronic DBS Therapy Works
•		 One or more leads are implanted to deliver electrical
stimulation to parts of the brain involved in
movement control, including the globus pallidus
or subthalamic nucleus.
•		 Current delivered by the lead is believed to disrupt
and modulate abnormal motor circuit activity in the
brain caused by PD, thereby smoothing out motor
function. However, the exact mechanism of action
isn’t completely understood.

“Medicine and surgery are not separate
disciplines. Surgery is not the failure
of neurology, but rather the extension
of neurology.”
				 — George Plotkin, MD, PhD
When drugs become less reliable,
Medtronic DBS Therapy should be considered

Best Medical Therapy Defined
Patients who received BMT were managed actively by movement disorder neurologists.
Patients received state-of-the-art care, including the active management of medications and nonpharmacological
therapy (e.g., physical occupational, and speech therapy) as needed to achieve best symptom control.
•	 Results from prospective multi-
center randomized control trial
of patients with advanced PD4
•	 Medications were reduced 25%

5Help Your Patients Achieve Daily Victories
•		 Although there was a significantly higher incidence of serious adverse events observed in patients
receiving DBS Therapy, 99% of serious adverse events were resolved by 6 months.4
•		 Improvements in MRI imaging, stereotactic equipment and software, and patient selection
have all helped advance DBS Therapy since the FDA first approved it in 1997.
Surgical risks include:
•		 Infection
•		 Cerebral hemorrhage
Hardware related risks include:
•		 Lead fractures
Stimulation related side
effects include:
•		Paresthesia
•		Speech
•		Dystonia
Note: Stimulation-related side effects typically
can be reduced or resolved noninvasively through
fine-tuning of programming settings.
The majority of serious adverse events* with Medtronic DBS Therapy are
procedure-related and temporary4
Proven safety profile
Additional risks and side effects:
•	 Speech may get worse after DBS Therapy,
requiring speech therapy.
•	 Some risks associated with DBS Therapy may be
due to improved function and greater activity.5
Unlike thalamotomy:
•		 DBS Therapy preserves brain structures for
future therapies and treatments.
•		 DBS Therapy is safely performed bilaterally.4
* A serious adverse event was defined according to FDA regulations as any event that: results in death, is life-threatening, results in prolonged or new hospitalization,
results in disability or congenital anomaly/birth defect, or requires medical or surgical intervention to prevent one of the above outcomes.
Note: Adverse events vary depending on implanting centers. Consult with the implanting center you refer patients to in order to determine risks and
adverse events.
Deep Brain Stimulation Therapy for Movement Disorders6
In order to obtain maximum benefits from DBS Therapy, patients with idiopathic Parkinson’s disease must be
referred at the optimal time, or during a “window of opportunity” when the therapy may be most effective.
According to the American Academy of Neurology (AAN),“10% to 20%
of people with PD may be eligible for surgical treatments.”7
• No longer responsive to dopaminergic medication
• Severely disabled even in the best“on”state
• Medical conditions that prevent surgery
• Onset of frank dementia
Patient is experiencing troubling motor
symptoms not effectively controlled
by medications.
• “On”time characterized by disabling dyskinesias
(or other nonmotor side effects)
OR
•“Off”time characterized by disabling tremor,
rigidity, or akinesia/bradykinesia
OR
• Unpredictable“on/off”motor fluctuations
OR
• Medication-resistant tremor

When is Medtronic DBS Therapy appropriate?
Medtronic DBS Patient Referral Advisor
The Patient Referral Advisor is a software tool that creates a patient “appropriateness” profile for DBS
Therapy based on 5 absolute criteria and 7 relative criteria.
To download the Patient Referral Advisor software visit: www.medtronic.com/dbsreferraladvisor.
DBS Therapy should be considered when the patient, despite optimal medical therapy, reaches a
stage where the daily burden of PD begins to cause significant interference with:
•		 Daily function
•		 Occupational activities
•		 Important leisure time pursuits
•		 Basic activities of daily living
Discuss each patient’s goals and expectations
to determine whether DBSTherapy is right for
him or her. It’s important to set realistic goals
about the benefits of Medtronic DBSTherapy.
Deep Brain Stimulation Therapy for Movement Disorders8
Establish a partnership with your Medtronic DBS Therapy implant
center to manage postimplant patient care, which involves

Medtronic DBSTherapy for Parkinson’s Disease,Tremor and Dystonia: Patients should always discuss the potential risks and benefits with a physician.
Indications:
Medtronic DBSTherapy for Parkinson’s Disease: Bilateral stimulation of the internal globus pallidus (GPi) or the subthalamic nucleus (STN) using Medtronic DBSTherapy for Parkinson’s Disease is indicated for adjunctive
therapy in reducing some of the symptoms of advanced, levodopa-responsive Parkinson’s disease that are not adequately controlled with medication.
Medtronic DBSTherapy forTremor: Unilateral thalamic stimulation using Medtronic DBSTherapy forTremor is indicated for the suppression of tremor in the upper extremity.The system is intended for use in patients who
are diagnosed with EssentialTremor or Parkinsonian tremor not adequately controlled by medications and where the tremor constitutes a significant functional disability.The safety or effectiveness of this therapy has not
been established for bilateral stimulation.
Medtronic DBSTherapy for Dystonia: Unilateral or bilateral stimulation of the internal globus pallidus (GPi) or the subthalamic nucleus (STN) using Medtronic DBSTherapy for Dystonia is indicated as an aid in the
management of chronic, intractable (drug refractory) primary dystonia, including generalized and segmental dystonia, hemidystonia, and cervical dystonia (torticollis), for individuals 7 years of age and older.
Contraindications: Contraindications include patients who will be exposed to MRI using a full body radio-frequency (RF) coil or a head transmit coil that extends over the chest area, patients who are unable to properly
operate the neurostimulator, or for Parkinson’s disease and EssentialTremor, patients for whom test stimulation is unsuccessful. Also, diathermy (e.g., shortwave diathermy, microwave diathermy or therapeutic ultrasound
diathermy) is contraindicated because diathermy’s energy can be transferred through the implanted system (or any of the separate implanted components), which can cause neurostimulation system or tissue damage and
can result in severe injury or death.Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS) is contraindicated for patients with an implanted DBS System.
Warnings/ Precautions/Adverse Events:There is a potential risk of tissue damage using stimulation parameter settings of high amplitudes and wide pulse widths. Extreme care should be used with lead implantation in
patients with a heightened risk of intracranial hemorrhage.The lead-extension connector should not be placed in the soft tissues of the neck due to an increased incidence of lead fracture.Theft detectors and security
screening devices may cause stimulation to switch ON or OFF, and may cause some patients to experience a momentary increase in perceived stimulation. Although some MRI procedures can be performed safely with an
implanted DBS System, clinicians should carefully weigh the decision to use MRI in patients with an implanted DBS System. MRI can cause induced voltages in the neurostimulator and/or lead possibly causing
uncomfortable, jolting, or shocking levels of stimulation.
The DBS System may be affected by or adversely affect medical equipment such as cardiac pacemakers or therapies, cardioverter/ defibrillators, external defibrillators, ultrasonic equipment, electrocautery, or radiation
therapy. Safety and effectiveness has not been established for patients with neurological disease other than Parkinson’s disease or EssentialTremor, previous surgical ablation procedures, dementia, coagulopathies, or
moderate to severe depression; or for patients who are pregnant, under 18 years, over 75 years of age (Parkinson’s ControlTherapy) or over 80 years of age (Tremor ControlTherapy). For patients with Dystonia, age of implant
is suggested to be that at which brain growth is approximately 90% complete or above. Depression, suicidal ideations and suicide have been reported in patients receiving Medtronic DBSTherapy for Movement Disorders,
although no direct cause and effect relationship has been established.
Abrupt cessation of stimulation should be avoided as it may cause a return of disease symptoms, in some cases with an intensity greater than was experienced prior to system implant (“rebound”effect). Adverse events
related to the therapy, device, or procedure can include: stimulation not effective, cognitive disorders, pain, dyskinesia, dystonia, speech disorders including dysarthria, infection, paresthesia, intracranial hemorrhage,
electromagnetic interference, cardiovascular events, visual disturbances, sensory disturbances, device migration, paresis/asthenia, abnormal gait, incoordination, headaches, lead repositioning, thinking abnormal, device
explant, hemiplegia, lead fracture, seizures, respiratory events, and shocking or jolting stimulation.
Humanitarian Device (Dystonia): Authorized by Federal Law for the use as an aid in the management of chronic, intractable (drug refractory) primary dystonia, including generalized and segmental dystonia, hemidystonia,
and cervical dystonia (torticollis), for individuals 7 years of age and older.The effectiveness of this device for this use has not been demonstrated. USA Rx only Rev 0311
Reclaim™ Deep Brain StimulationTherapy for Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder: Product labeling must be reviewed prior to use for detailed disclosure of risks.
Indications: The Medtronic Reclaim DBSTherapy is indicated for bilateral stimulation of the anterior limb of the internal capsule, AIC, as an adjunct to medications and as an alternative to anterior capsulotomy for treatment
of chronic, severe, treatment-resistant obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD) in adult patients who have failed at least three selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs).
Contraindications: Contraindications include patients who will be exposed to MRI using a full body radio-frequency (RF) coil or a head transmit coil that extends over the chest area, and for patients who are unable to
properly operate the neurostimulator. Also, diathermy (e.g., shortwave diathermy, microwave diathermy or therapeutic ultrasound diathermy) is contraindicated because diathermy’s energy can be transferred through the
implanted system (or any of the separate implanted components), which can cause tissue damage and can result in severe injury or death. Diathermy can damage parts of the neurostimulation system.Transcranial Magnetic
Stimulation (TMS) is contraindicated for patients with an implanted DBS System.
Warnings/precautions/adverse events:
ElectroconvulsiveTherapy (ECT) –The safety of ECT in patients who have an implanted deep brain stimulation (DBS) system has not been established. Induced electrical currents may interfere with the intended stimulation or
damage the neurostimulation system components resulting in loss of therapeutic effect, clinically significant undesirable stimulation effects, additional surgery for system explantation and replacement, or neurological injury.
There is a potential risk of tissue damage using stimulation parameter settings of high amplitudes and wide pulse widths. Extreme care should be used with lead implantation in patients with a heightened risk of intracranial
hemorrhage. Do not place the lead-extension connector in the soft tissues of the neck. Placement in this location has been associated with an increased incidence of lead fracture.Theft detectors and security screening
devices may cause stimulation to switch ON or OFF, and may cause some patients to experience a momentary increase in perceived stimulation. Severe burns could result if the neurostimulator case is ruptured or pierced.
The safety of somatic psychiatric therapies using equipment that generates electromagnetic interference (e.g., vagus nerve stimulation) has not been established.The Reclaim DBS System may be affected by or adversely
affect medical equipment such as cardiac pacemakers or therapies, cardioverter/ defibrillators, external defibrillators, ultrasonic equipment, electrocautery, or radiation therapy. Patients should be monitored for at least 30
minutes after a programming session, for side effects, including: autonomic effects (e.g., facial flushing, facial muscle contractions, or increased heart rate), hypomania, increased disease symptoms, sensations such as tingling,
smell, or taste. In addition, during treatment, patients should be monitored closely for increased depression, anxiety, suicidality, and worsening of obsessive-compulsive symptoms.The safety and probable benefit of this
therapy has not been established for patients with:Tourette’s syndrome, OCD with a subclassification of hoarding, previous surgical ablation (e.g., capsulotomy), dementia, coagulopathies or who are on anticoagulant
therapy, neurological disorders, and other serious medical illness including cardiovascular disease, renal or hepatic failure, and diabetes mellitus. In addition, the safety and probable benefit has not been established for these
patients: those whose diagnosis of OCD is documented to be less than 5 years duration or whoseYBOCS score is less then 30, who have not completed a minimum of 3 adequate trials of first and/or second line medications
with augmentation, who have not attempted to complete an adequate trial of cognitive behavior therapy (CBT), who are pregnant, under the age of 18 years, and who do not have comorbid depression and anxiety.
Physicians should carefully consider the potential risks of implanting the Reclaim DBS System in patients with comorbid psychiatric disorders (e.g., bipolar, body dysmorphic, psychotic) as the Reclaim DBS System may
aggravate the symptoms. Additionally, the abrupt cessation of stimulation for any reason should be avoided as it may cause a return or worsening (i.e.,“rebound”effect) of disease symptoms. Serious adverse events related to
the therapy, device, or procedure can include: suicidality/increased depression, increased OCD/fluctuating results, intracranial hemorrhage, lead/extension failure, aggression/violent behavior, accident proneness, irritability,
death, hypomania, infection, pyelonephritis, and post-operative seizure. Adverse events related to the therapy, device, or procedure can include: coma, paralysis, pain or discomfort at incision/implant sites, general post-op
discomfort, GI symptom (post op), increased anxiety, insomnia, cognitive disturbance (clouding), induced muscle contraction, restlessness, stimulation induced paresthesia, device migration, shocking or jolting stimulation,
induced sensation of taste/smell, weight gain, increased fatigue, upper respiratory infection, headaches, dizziness, dry mouth, itching at surgical site(s), nausea, sedation, and weight loss.
Humanitarian Device: Authorized by Federal (U.S.A) law for use as an adjunct to medications and as alternative to anterior capsulotomy for treatment of chronic, severe, treatment-resistant obsessive-compulsive disorder
(OCD) in adult patients who have failed at least three selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs).The effectiveness of this device for this use has not been demonstrated. USA Rx Only Rev 1009

  • 2. Deep Brain Stimulation Therapy for Movement Disorders2 • In the United States, there are more than 1 million people living with Parkinson’s disease (PD). 2 • Levodopa generally provides smooth and stable benefits for up to 5 years after therapy introduction.3 • After this period, patients may experience increasingly troublesome and unpredictable motor fluctuations and dyskinesias.3 Motor fluctuations and dyskinesias decrease quality of life for people with Parkinson’s disease1 Iris C. Benefiting from DBSTherapy since 2008 • The delayed “on,” wearing off, and dose failure of levodopa may be due to its impaired absorption, short half-life, and the loss of striatal dopamine storage capacity.3 • When drugs become less reliable, Medtronic DBS Therapy (Deep Brain Stimulation) should be considered to achieve PD treatment goals. Treating motor fluctuations and dyskinesias requires moving beyond standard dopamine replacement therapy3 Medications Alone Medtronic DBSTherapy 0 hours of additional“on”time4 5.1 hours additional“on”time without troubling dyskinesias* Unpredictable More predictable Dyskinesias and nonmotor side effects Medication reduction may lead to fewer drug-induced side effects Pulsatile delivery Continuous delivery GI absorption required No GI absorption Must cross blood-brain barrier Targeted and direct Dosing compliance challenges Simplified medication regimen may be possible Benefits of Adding Medtronic DBS Therapy *Mean results; DBS is adjunctive to medications.
  • 3. Help Your Patients Achieve Daily Victories 3 More than 75,000 patients globally have been treated with Medtronic DBS Therapy. How Medtronic DBS Therapy Works • One or more leads are implanted to deliver electrical stimulation to parts of the brain involved in movement control, including the globus pallidus or subthalamic nucleus. • Current delivered by the lead is believed to disrupt and modulate abnormal motor circuit activity in the brain caused by PD, thereby smoothing out motor function. However, the exact mechanism of action isn’t completely understood. *This chart is for illustrative purposes and does not reflect actual“on”or“off”time. DBS Therapy with Medications Provides an Additional 5.1 Hours of “On”Time to Smooth Out Motor Function Throughout the Day4 Time (daily) “Off”time “On”time without dyskinesias Dyskinesias Without DBSTherapy With DBSTherapy “Medicine and surgery are not separate disciplines. Surgery is not the failure of neurology, but rather the extension of neurology.” — George Plotkin, MD, PhD When drugs become less reliable, Medtronic DBS Therapy should be considered

  • 11. Help Your Patients Achieve Daily Victories 11 Medtronic DBSTherapy for Parkinson’s Disease,Tremor and Dystonia: Patients should always discuss the potential risks and benefits with a physician. Indications: Medtronic DBSTherapy for Parkinson’s Disease: Bilateral stimulation of the internal globus pallidus (GPi) or the subthalamic nucleus (STN) using Medtronic DBSTherapy for Parkinson’s Disease is indicated for adjunctive therapy in reducing some of the symptoms of advanced, levodopa-responsive Parkinson’s disease that are not adequately controlled with medication. Medtronic DBSTherapy forTremor: Unilateral thalamic stimulation using Medtronic DBSTherapy forTremor is indicated for the suppression of tremor in the upper extremity.The system is intended for use in patients who are diagnosed with EssentialTremor or Parkinsonian tremor not adequately controlled by medications and where the tremor constitutes a significant functional disability.The safety or effectiveness of this therapy has not been established for bilateral stimulation. Medtronic DBSTherapy for Dystonia: Unilateral or bilateral stimulation of the internal globus pallidus (GPi) or the subthalamic nucleus (STN) using Medtronic DBSTherapy for Dystonia is indicated as an aid in the management of chronic, intractable (drug refractory) primary dystonia, including generalized and segmental dystonia, hemidystonia, and cervical dystonia (torticollis), for individuals 7 years of age and older. Contraindications: Contraindications include patients who will be exposed to MRI using a full body radio-frequency (RF) coil or a head transmit coil that extends over the chest area, patients who are unable to properly operate the neurostimulator, or for Parkinson’s disease and EssentialTremor, patients for whom test stimulation is unsuccessful. Also, diathermy (e.g., shortwave diathermy, microwave diathermy or therapeutic ultrasound diathermy) is contraindicated because diathermy’s energy can be transferred through the implanted system (or any of the separate implanted components), which can cause neurostimulation system or tissue damage and can result in severe injury or death.Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS) is contraindicated for patients with an implanted DBS System. Warnings/ Precautions/Adverse Events:There is a potential risk of tissue damage using stimulation parameter settings of high amplitudes and wide pulse widths. Extreme care should be used with lead implantation in patients with a heightened risk of intracranial hemorrhage.The lead-extension connector should not be placed in the soft tissues of the neck due to an increased incidence of lead fracture.Theft detectors and security screening devices may cause stimulation to switch ON or OFF, and may cause some patients to experience a momentary increase in perceived stimulation. Although some MRI procedures can be performed safely with an implanted DBS System, clinicians should carefully weigh the decision to use MRI in patients with an implanted DBS System. MRI can cause induced voltages in the neurostimulator and/or lead possibly causing uncomfortable, jolting, or shocking levels of stimulation. The DBS System may be affected by or adversely affect medical equipment such as cardiac pacemakers or therapies, cardioverter/ defibrillators, external defibrillators, ultrasonic equipment, electrocautery, or radiation therapy. Safety and effectiveness has not been established for patients with neurological disease other than Parkinson’s disease or EssentialTremor, previous surgical ablation procedures, dementia, coagulopathies, or moderate to severe depression; or for patients who are pregnant, under 18 years, over 75 years of age (Parkinson’s ControlTherapy) or over 80 years of age (Tremor ControlTherapy). For patients with Dystonia, age of implant is suggested to be that at which brain growth is approximately 90% complete or above. Depression, suicidal ideations and suicide have been reported in patients receiving Medtronic DBSTherapy for Movement Disorders, although no direct cause and effect relationship has been established. Abrupt cessation of stimulation should be avoided as it may cause a return of disease symptoms, in some cases with an intensity greater than was experienced prior to system implant (“rebound”effect). Adverse events related to the therapy, device, or procedure can include: stimulation not effective, cognitive disorders, pain, dyskinesia, dystonia, speech disorders including dysarthria, infection, paresthesia, intracranial hemorrhage, electromagnetic interference, cardiovascular events, visual disturbances, sensory disturbances, device migration, paresis/asthenia, abnormal gait, incoordination, headaches, lead repositioning, thinking abnormal, device explant, hemiplegia, lead fracture, seizures, respiratory events, and shocking or jolting stimulation. Humanitarian Device (Dystonia): Authorized by Federal Law for the use as an aid in the management of chronic, intractable (drug refractory) primary dystonia, including generalized and segmental dystonia, hemidystonia, and cervical dystonia (torticollis), for individuals 7 years of age and older.The effectiveness of this device for this use has not been demonstrated. USA Rx only Rev 0311 Reclaim™ Deep Brain StimulationTherapy for Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder: Product labeling must be reviewed prior to use for detailed disclosure of risks. Indications: The Medtronic Reclaim DBSTherapy is indicated for bilateral stimulation of the anterior limb of the internal capsule, AIC, as an adjunct to medications and as an alternative to anterior capsulotomy for treatment of chronic, severe, treatment-resistant obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD) in adult patients who have failed at least three selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs). Contraindications: Contraindications include patients who will be exposed to MRI using a full body radio-frequency (RF) coil or a head transmit coil that extends over the chest area, and for patients who are unable to properly operate the neurostimulator. Also, diathermy (e.g., shortwave diathermy, microwave diathermy or therapeutic ultrasound diathermy) is contraindicated because diathermy’s energy can be transferred through the implanted system (or any of the separate implanted components), which can cause tissue damage and can result in severe injury or death. Diathermy can damage parts of the neurostimulation system.Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS) is contraindicated for patients with an implanted DBS System. Warnings/precautions/adverse events: ElectroconvulsiveTherapy (ECT) –The safety of ECT in patients who have an implanted deep brain stimulation (DBS) system has not been established. Induced electrical currents may interfere with the intended stimulation or damage the neurostimulation system components resulting in loss of therapeutic effect, clinically significant undesirable stimulation effects, additional surgery for system explantation and replacement, or neurological injury. There is a potential risk of tissue damage using stimulation parameter settings of high amplitudes and wide pulse widths. Extreme care should be used with lead implantation in patients with a heightened risk of intracranial hemorrhage. Do not place the lead-extension connector in the soft tissues of the neck. Placement in this location has been associated with an increased incidence of lead fracture.Theft detectors and security screening devices may cause stimulation to switch ON or OFF, and may cause some patients to experience a momentary increase in perceived stimulation. Severe burns could result if the neurostimulator case is ruptured or pierced. The safety of somatic psychiatric therapies using equipment that generates electromagnetic interference (e.g., vagus nerve stimulation) has not been established.The Reclaim DBS System may be affected by or adversely affect medical equipment such as cardiac pacemakers or therapies, cardioverter/ defibrillators, external defibrillators, ultrasonic equipment, electrocautery, or radiation therapy. Patients should be monitored for at least 30 minutes after a programming session, for side effects, including: autonomic effects (e.g., facial flushing, facial muscle contractions, or increased heart rate), hypomania, increased disease symptoms, sensations such as tingling, smell, or taste. In addition, during treatment, patients should be monitored closely for increased depression, anxiety, suicidality, and worsening of obsessive-compulsive symptoms.The safety and probable benefit of this therapy has not been established for patients with:Tourette’s syndrome, OCD with a subclassification of hoarding, previous surgical ablation (e.g., capsulotomy), dementia, coagulopathies or who are on anticoagulant therapy, neurological disorders, and other serious medical illness including cardiovascular disease, renal or hepatic failure, and diabetes mellitus. In addition, the safety and probable benefit has not been established for these patients: those whose diagnosis of OCD is documented to be less than 5 years duration or whoseYBOCS score is less then 30, who have not completed a minimum of 3 adequate trials of first and/or second line medications with augmentation, who have not attempted to complete an adequate trial of cognitive behavior therapy (CBT), who are pregnant, under the age of 18 years, and who do not have comorbid depression and anxiety. Physicians should carefully consider the potential risks of implanting the Reclaim DBS System in patients with comorbid psychiatric disorders (e.g., bipolar, body dysmorphic, psychotic) as the Reclaim DBS System may aggravate the symptoms. Additionally, the abrupt cessation of stimulation for any reason should be avoided as it may cause a return or worsening (i.e.,“rebound”effect) of disease symptoms. Serious adverse events related to the therapy, device, or procedure can include: suicidality/increased depression, increased OCD/fluctuating results, intracranial hemorrhage, lead/extension failure, aggression/violent behavior, accident proneness, irritability, death, hypomania, infection, pyelonephritis, and post-operative seizure. Adverse events related to the therapy, device, or procedure can include: coma, paralysis, pain or discomfort at incision/implant sites, general post-op discomfort, GI symptom (post op), increased anxiety, insomnia, cognitive disturbance (clouding), induced muscle contraction, restlessness, stimulation induced paresthesia, device migration, shocking or jolting stimulation, induced sensation of taste/smell, weight gain, increased fatigue, upper respiratory infection, headaches, dizziness, dry mouth, itching at surgical site(s), nausea, sedation, and weight loss. Humanitarian Device: Authorized by Federal (U.S.A) law for use as an adjunct to medications and as alternative to anterior capsulotomy for treatment of chronic, severe, treatment-resistant obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD) in adult patients who have failed at least three selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs).The effectiveness of this device for this use has not been demonstrated.
