Abstract:
Deep brain stimulation has been proposed for severe, chronic, treatment-refractory obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD) patients. Although serious adverse events can occur, only a few studies report on the safety profile of DSS for psychiatric disorders, In a prospective,open-label, interventional multi-center study, we examined the safety and efficacy of electrical stimulation in 30 patients with DBS electrode bilaterally implanted in the anterior limb of the internal capsule. Safety, efficacy, and functionality assessments were performed at 3, 6 and 12 months post implant. An independent Clinical Events Committee classified and coded all adverse events (AEs) according to EN ISO14155:2011. All patients experienced AEs (195 in total), with the majority of these being mild (52%of all AEs) or moderate (37%). Median time resolution was 22 days for all AEs and the etiology with the highestAE was programming/stimulation (in 26 patients), followed by "new illness, injury, condition" (13 patients) and "pre-existing condition, worsening or exacerbation" (11 patients). Sixteen patients reported a total of serious AEs (eight of them in one single patient), mainly transient anxiety and affective symptoms worsening (20 AEs). Regarding efficacy measures, Y-BOCS reduction was 42% at 12 months and the responder rate was 60%. Improvements in GAF, CGI, and EuroQol-5D index scores were also observed. In sum, although some severe AEs occurred, most AEs were mild or moderate, transient and related to programming/stimulation. In a severely treatment-resistant population, this open-label study supports that the potential benefits outweigh the potential risk of DBS.
