发明名称 Methods and systems for treating a medical condition by promoting neural remodeling within the brain
摘要 Methods of treating a medical condition include applying at least one stimulus to a stimulation site within the brain of a patient with an implanted stimulator in accordance with one or more stimulation parameters. The at least one stimulus is configured to promote neural remodeling within the brain of the patient. Systems for treating a medical condition include an implantable stimulator configured to apply at least one stimulus to a stimulation site within the brain of a patient in accordance with one or more stimulation parameters. The at least one stimulus is configured to promote neural remodeling within the brain of the patient.

主权项 1. A method of treating a medical condition of a patient, said method comprising: generating an electrical stimulus in accordance with one or more stimulation parameters and applying said electrical stimulus to a stimulation site of a brain of said patient to decrease the relative excitement between neurons that are the source of said medical condition and neural tissue surrounding said neurons, thereby inducing said neurons to break synaptic contacts and revert to a juvenile phenotype.
