Deep brain stimulator complication

  • Implanted to treat Parkinson's disease and dystonia.
  • Single lead systems implanted into the thalamus

Complications

  2. Over or Under stimulation
  3. Lead Migration

Gastric pacemaker complication

  • Inserted into the gastric musculature for gastroparesis management

Complications

  1. Perforation
  2. Infection
  3. Lead Migration

Phrenic nerve/diaphragmatic stimulators complication

  • Implanted into bilateral phrenic nerves to treat rerspiratory insufficiency from poor diaphragmatic motion

Complications

  1. Pneumothorax (early after implantation)
  2. Infection
  3. Wire Migration
