Method Of Treating Psychiatric Disorders By Electrical Stimulation Within The Orbitofrontal Cerebral Cortex

US Patent:

6418344, Jul 9, 2002

Filed:

Feb 24, 2000

Appl. No.:

09/511843

Inventors:

Ali R. Rezai - New York City NY
Brian H. Kopell - New York City NY

Assignee:

ElectroCore Techniques, LLC - Summit NJ

International Classification:

A61N 118

US Classification:

607 45

Abstract:

A method for treating psychiatric diseases such as Anxiety disorder (including General Anxiety Disorder, Obsessive Compulsive Disease, and Panic Disorder), Affective Disorder(including Major Depression and Bipolar Disorder) by neuromodulation (either chemical or electrical) of the frontal cerebral cortex, and in particular regions within the orbitofrontal cerebral cortex. The method includes the steps of determining a common group of patients, each suffering from a common specific diagnosis for a psychiatric disorder; determining which common regions of the patients orbitofrontal cerebral cortex are involved in the pathogenesis of the abnormal electrical and chemical activity associated with the psychiatric disease; surgically implanting an electrode and/or catheter and electrical signal generating device and/or drug-delivery pump such that the electrode and/or catheter is positioned within the region of the frontal cerebral cortex known as the orbitofrontal cortex; and selectively adjusting the level of electrical and/or chemical stimulation in accordance with the specific effect of the stimulation of the patient. In particular, the region of the frontal cerebral cortex most frequently associated with psychiatric disorders is the orbitofrontal cortex.

Method Of Treating Psychiatric Diseases By Neuromodulation Within The Dorsomedial Thalamus

US Patent:

6609030, Aug 19, 2003

Filed:

Feb 24, 2000

Appl. No.:

09/511842

Inventors:

Ali R. Rezai - New York NY
Brian H. Kopell - New York NY

Assignee:

ElectroCore Techniques, LLC - Summit NJ

International Classification:

A61N 118

US Classification:

607 45, 600 93, 600508

Abstract:

A method for treating psychiatric diseases such as Affective Disorder (including Major Depression and Bipolar Disorder), Anxiety Disorder (including General Anxiety Disorder, Obsessive Compulsive Disorder and Panic Disorder) by stimulation (either electrical and/or chemical) of the thalamus, and in particular a region within the dorsomedial nucleus of the thalamus. The method includes the steps of determining a common group of patients, each suffering from a common specific diagnosis for a psychological disorder; determining which common region of the patients thalami are involved in carrying the pathological electrical signals and/or metabolic activity which may otherwise be generated in dissimilar and disparate regions of the brains of the patients; surgically implanting an electrode and/or catheter and electrical signal generating device and/or drug pump such that the electrode and/or catheter is positioned within the region of the thalamus identified as the dorsomedial nucleus; and selectively adjusting the level of electrical and/or chemical stimulation in accordance with the specific effect of the stimulation of the patient. In particular, the region of the thalamus most frequently associated with the aforementioned psychiatric disease is the dorsomedial nucleus.

System And Method For Remote Programming Of A Medical Device

US Patent:

2003012, Jun 26, 2003

Filed:

Dec 26, 2001

Appl. No.:

10/033250

Inventors:

Brett Osborn - New York NY, US
Brian Kopell - New York NY, US

International Classification:

A61N001/18

US Classification:

607/060000

Abstract:

A system and method allows a physician to remotely change the settings of a medical device that is implanted in a patient who is physically separated from the patient. The physician uses a computer to remotely access the patient's computer and programs new settings for the medical device that is conveyed to an emulator which in turn conveys the settings to the medical device. Patients who have neurostimulators implanted in them are particularly suited to receive the benefits of the present invention.
