- Brain stimulation in the treatment of late-life severe mental illness other than unipolar nonpsychotic depression.

Current medications have limited efficacy and are associated with safety concerns. A variety of brain stimulation approaches offers alternative treatments. We performed a systematic literature search on the efficacy and safety of brain stimulation in late-life mental illnesses, excluding unipolar nonpsychotic depression. Studies on deep brain stimulation, electroconvulsive therapy (ECT), repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS), and vagal nerve stimulation that enrolled exclusively older adults (≥65 years) or analyzed older adults as a separate group were included. The search identified 1,181 publications, of which 43 met the above inclusion criteria: 24 were related to the treatment of non-unipolar depression (ECT: 21; rTMS: 2; ECT and rTMS: 1), 14 related to dementia (ECT: 7[2 of these studies were also related to depression]; vagal nerve stimulation: 2; rTMS: 4; deep brain stimulation: 1), and 7 to schizophrenia (ECT: 7). These studies reported a high degree of variability in efficacy and safety with promising results in general, particularly in the treatment of dementia and schizophrenia. Most publications were limited by small sample sizes, lack of control conditions, and lack of randomization. Large studies with a randomized controlled design or other designs such as crossover or off-on-off-on are needed. In contrast to the empiric and nonspecific use of ECT, future studies using modalities other than ECT could focus on novel biologically based interventions that target specific circuitry. These interventions could also be combined with other non-brain stimulation treatments for possible synergistic effects.

- Estimation of equivalent threshold currents using different pulse widths for the epidural stimulation test in a porcine model.
- Tsui BC1, Tsui JH, Corry GN.Author information 1Department of Anesthesiology and Pain Medicine, University of Alberta, 8-120 Clinical Sciences Building, Edmonton, AB, T6G 2G3, Canada, btsui@ualberta.ca.AbstractBACKGROUND: The epidural stimulation test can help detect if a catheter is correctly positioned in the epidural space. Previous studies showed that a current of up to 16 mA was required to elicit a motor response, but few peripheral nerve stimulators can produce a current this high. Manipulating pulse width can produce a positive response at a lower current. To clarify the effects of pulse width on the epidural stimulation test, we performed a single-blinded study in a porcine model to estimate the equivalent current needed at varying pulse widths.

- Implementation Fidelity of Self-administered Transcutaneous Electrical Nerve Stimulation (TENS) in Patients With Chronic Back Pain: An Observational Study.
- Pallett EJ1, Rentowl P, Johnson MI, Watson PJ.Author information 1*Department of Health Sciences, Leicester Royal Infirmary †Department of Health Sciences, Academic Unit, University of Leicester, Leicester ‡Faculty of Health and Social Sciences, Leeds Metropolitan University, Leeds, UK.AbstractOBJECTIVES: The efficacy of transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation (TENS) for pain relief has not been reliably established. Inconclusive findings could be due to inadequate TENS delivery and inappropriate outcome assessment. Electronic monitoring devices were used to determine patient compliance with a TENS intervention and outcome assessment protocol, to record pain scores before, during, and after TENS, and measure electrical output settings.
