MEDTRONIC deep brain stimulation therapy is indicated for the unilateral orbital stimulation of the internal pale globe (IPG) or the sub-thalamic nucleus (STN) in the following cases: Parkinson's disease: indicated for adjuvant therapy in the reduction of some of the symptoms of advanced Parkinson's disease in patients with a response to levodopa and who do not control it adequately with medication. Trembling and dikinesias: indicated for the suppression of tremor in the upper extremities. Intended for patients diagnosed with essential tremor or tremor associated with Parkinson's disease not adequately controlled by medication and where the tremor constitutes a significant loss of functionality. Dystonia: indicated as aid for the treatment of intractable chronic primary dystonia (resistant to medication), including generalized and segmental dystonia, hemidystonia and cervical dystonia (torticollis), for people 7 years of age or older. Epilepsy: indicated as therapy adjuvant to reduce the frequency of seizures in adult patients diagnosed with epilepsy characterized by initial partial seizures with or without secondary generalization resistant to antiepileptic drugs. Obsessive-compulsive disorder: indicated for the bilateral stimulation of the internal capsule of the anterior limbus (AIC) as a complement to medication and as an alternative for the treatment of chronic obsessive-compulsive disorder resistant to treatment with serotonin inhibitors.
“If our surveillance systems identify a potential performance issue, our personnel promptly evaluate the problem, including, when appropriate, conducting root cause investigations and internal testing to assess whether the product continues to meet specifications and defined performance criteria,” Medtronic told ICIJ in a statement. “In some cases, based on this evaluation, Medtronic may determine that a recall is necessary.” The company said that it communicates with healthcare providers and/or patients and provide recommendations to address such issues. Medtronic noted that these communications can include letters, emails, calls, press releases, physician notifications and social media postings, as well as informing the FDA and other regulators of the actions.

MEDTRONIC deep brain stimulation therapy is indicated for the unilateral or bilateral stimulation of the internal pale balloon (IPG) or the sub-thalamic nucleus (STN) in the following cases: Parkinson's disease: indicated for adjuvant therapy in the reduction of some of the symptoms of advanced Parkinson's disease in patients with a response to levodopa and who do not control it adequately with medication. Essential tremor and dikinesias: indicated for the suppression of tremor in the upper extremities. Intended for patients diagnosed with essential contamblor or tremor associated with Parkinson's disease not adequately controlled by medication and where tremor is a significant loss of functionality. Dystonia: indicated as an aid for the treatment of intractable primary chromosome (resistant to medication) dystonia, including generalized and segmental dystonia, hemidystonia, and cervical dystonia (torticollis), for persons 7 years of age or older. Epilepsy: indicated as adjuvant therapy to reduce the frequency of convulsions in adult patients diagnosed with epilepsy characterized by initial partial seizures with or secondary syngeneization resistant to anti-epileptic drugs. Obsessive-compulsive disorder: indicated for bilateral stimulation of the internal capsule of the anterior limbus (AIC) as complement to medication and as an alternative for the treatment of chronic compulsive obsessive-compulsive disorder resistant to treatment with serotonin inhibitors.
