This study introduces a new platform for closed-loop neuromodulation, enabling automated adjustments to stimulation therapy for neurological disorders. This system optimizes treatment by using biomarkers to control stimulation parameters in real-time.

Area of Science:

  • Neuroscience
  • Biomedical Engineering
  • Neuromodulation

Background:

  • Neuromodulation is effective for Parkinson's disease and essential tremor.
  • Optimizing neuromodulation requires automated, closed-loop systems to adjust therapy based on patient state.
  • Challenges include limited human data, poor state estimators, and unknown optimal stimulation parameter dynamics.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To develop and validate an investigational platform for automated, closed-loop neuromodulation.
  • To overcome challenges in real-time patient state estimation and stimulation parameter optimization.
  • To create a flexible tool for developing improved mechanistic models and closed-loop systems for neurological disorders.

Main Methods:

  • An implanted sensing and stimulation device was developed for data collection and closed-loop algorithm execution.

Closed-loop Neuro-robotic Experiments to Test Computational Properties of Neuronal Networks

Published on: March 2, 2015

  • An external tool was created for prototyping classifier and control-policy algorithms.
  • Real-time telemetry was used for firmware updates and device monitoring.
  • A chronic large animal model was used to study hippocampal dynamics and validate the platform.

    • Main Results:

    • Biomarkers of observed network states were identified using the platform.
    • Transfer functions of different stimulation amplitudes were determined.
    • Moderate stimulation suppressed hippocampal beta activity; high stimulation induced seizure-like activity.
    • Identified biomarkers and transfer functions informed classifier and control-policy algorithms.

    Conclusions:

    • The developed platform enables continuous titration of stimulation amplitude for desired network effects.
    • The platform successfully mapped biomarkers and transfer functions into closed-loop control algorithms.
    • This investigational platform is a flexible tool for advancing automated closed-loop neuromodulation for various neurological conditions.
