Abstract
This is a summary of the three commercially available neuromodulation devices for refractory epilepsy, highlighting their use in children. The article offers a high-level review of the proposed mechanisms of vagus nerve stimulation, responsive neurostimulation, and deep brain stimulation, the pivotal trials leading to their approval for use in the United States, as well as their efficacy and associated adverse effects.
期刊介绍:
Epilepsy & Behavior is the fastest-growing international journal uniquely devoted to the rapid dissemination of the most current information available on the behavioral aspects of seizures and epilepsy.
Epilepsy & Behavior presents original peer-reviewed articles based on laboratory and clinical research. Topics are drawn from a variety of fields, including clinical neurology, neurosurgery, neuropsychiatry, neuropsychology, neurophysiology, neuropharmacology, and neuroimaging.
From September 2012 Epilepsy & Behavior stopped accepting Case Reports for publication in the journal. From this date authors who submit to Epilepsy & Behavior will be offered a transfer or asked to resubmit their Case Reports to its new sister journal, Epilepsy & Behavior Case Reports.
