Abstract

The invention provides a device and method for stimulating habenula nucleus and / or striae medullares and / or fasciculus retroflexus in a brain to treat mental diseases. The method includes the following steps: at least one electrode is placed in the habenula nucleus located at least one side, and / or in any part of the striae medullares and / or the fasciculus retroflexus, at least one contact point of the electrode is in the area, the electrode is connected to at least one conductor, a terminal conductor is connected to a pulse generator, the electrode can transmit a stimulation signal parallel to an axon to the area, the pulse generator sends the stimulation signal to any contact points of the electrode through the conductor, and the electrode part in the area regulates the nerve activity. The device and method realize the stimulation of the habenula nucleus and / or upstream and downstream fiber bundles by using at least one electrode, and realize the feasibility of using a deep brain stimulation system to treat the mental diseases such as depression and addiction behaviors.

Description

technical field

[0001] The invention relates to a device for stimulating the habenula and / or stria medulla and / or posterior flexion bundles by a deep brain stimulation system, and belongs to the technical field of implantable medical systems. Background technique

[0002] The electrical activity of habenula neurons is closely related to depression, addictive behavior, obsessive-compulsive disorder and other psychiatric diseases.

[0003] Neuropsychiatric diseases have become the world's largest disease, and it is increasing year by year, with a heavy burden on society and families. Taking depression as an example, depression has become the second largest disease in the world, with a prevalence rate as high as 14.6% in developed countries and 11.1% in non-developed countries, seriously endangering the physical and mental health of the public.

[0004] Implantable deep brain stimulation systems have been developed and applied to the treatment of various diseases, such as Park...
