MULTI-MODAL SYSTEM FOR DETECTION AND CONTROL OF CHANGES IN BRAIN STATE

Title:

MULTI-MODAL SYSTEM FOR DETECTION AND CONTROL OF CHANGES IN BRAIN STATE

Document Type and Number:

WIPO Patent Application WO2004032720

Kind Code:

A3

Abstract:

A multi-purpose electrode mechanism for detection and control of changes in brain state includes a shaft portion (65) and extendible elements (63) structured for insertion into target tissue of the brain of a subject patient, cooling means (27, 43 & 107 or 153) configured to operatively apply cooling therapy to the target tissue, stimulation means (13) having at least one electrical contact structured to operatively apply electrical stimulation therapy to the target tissue, sensing means (15) including at least one sensor monitoring a biological signal of the subject patient, control means (25) responsive to the sensing means wherein the control means is structured to, in response to signals from the sensing means that indicate the presence of a pre-determined physiological condition or occurrence of an undesirable state change.
