Neuromodulation for Non-Painful Neurologic Disorders

Dr. Mayank Gupta presents an overview of neuromodulation for non-painful neurologic disorders. Dr. Gupta discusses the pathophysiology of neurological conditions, while exploring the mechanisms of action and the role of neurotransmitters in spinal cord stimulation (SCS). Dr. Gupta emphasizes the myriad of benefits of neuromodulation in non-painful neurological disorders. He examines the published clinical evidence supporting the use of SCS, such as posterior tibial nerve stimulation for overactive bladder, vagus nerve stimulation for epilepsy, depression, and bipolar disorder, hypoglossal nerve stimulation for obstructive sleep apnea, and burst SCS for Parkinson’s disease.
