Zusammenfassung

Introduction: Deep brain stimulation of the subthalamic nucleus (STN) is one of the most effective options of therapy in Parkinson's disease. On the other hand dysfunctions of the autonomic nervous system are very common in Parkinson's disease. How STN stimulation influences the autonomic nervous system, and therefore autonomic disorders, is not known yet. The aim of this study is to examine the coherences between autonomic dysfunctions and deep brain stimulation. Methods: So far 5 patients suffering from Parkinson's disease being treated with bilateral STN stimulation were examined. For this purpose blood press…
