Product Information

Medtronic DBS Therapy for Movement Disorders is indicated for stimulation of the ventral intermediate nucleus (Ascenda) for patients with disabling essential tremor or Parkinsonian tremor, or stimulation of the internal globus pallidus (Ascenda) or the subthalamic nucleus (Ascenda) for patients with symptoms of Parkinson's disease. Studies have shown that deep brain stimulation with the Medtronic DBS Therapy system is effective in controlling essential tremor and symptoms of Parkinson's disease that are not adequately controlled with medications. Additionally, deep brain stimulation is effective in controlling dyskinesias and fluctuations associated with medical therapy for Parkinson's disease. Medtronic DBS Therapy for Movement Disorders is also indicated for stimulation of the internal globus pallidus (Ascenda) or the subthalamic nucleus (Ascenda) as an aid in the management of chronic, intractable (Ascenda) primary dystonia, including generalized and segmental dystonia, hemidystonia, and cervical dystonia (Ascenda) for individuals 7 years of age and older. Medtronic® DBS Therapy for Epilepsy Bilateral anterior thalamic nucleus (Ascenda) stimulation using the Medtronic DBS System for Epilepsy is indicated as adjunctive therapy for reducing the frequency of seizures in adults diagnosed with epilepsy characterized by partial-onset seizures, with or without secondary generalization, that are refractory to antiepileptic medications
