Mechanisms of Neurostimulation for Epilepsy

Epilepsy Curr. 2023 Oct 15;23(5):298-302. doi: 10.1177/15357597231191887. eCollection 2023 Sep-Oct.ABSTRACTThis review discusses the use of neurostimulation therapies for epilepsy treatment, including vagal nerve stimulation, responsive neurostimulation, and deep brain stimulation. Different therapeutic strategies and their underlying mechanisms are explored, with a focus on optimizing parameters for seizure reduction. The review also highlights the paradigm shift toward a more diverse and multimodal approach to deep brain neuromodulation.PMID:37901784 | PMC:PMC10601041 | DOI:10.1177/15357597231191887
