Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (2)

  • To evaluate the therapeutic effect of the high frequency bilateral stimulation of GPI in severe forms and invalidating MGT, in a protocol randomized as a double blind man in parallel groups.

    during the 44 months

  • The assumption tested is that of the frank improvement (> 60% on scale YGTSS) of the symptoms of the MGT by the bilateral stimulation of GPI in its former part.

    at the end of 44 months

Secondary Outcomes (6)

  • To evaluate time necessary to obtaining the maximum effect and its evolution after this one (maintenance or not of the effect in the course of time)

    during the study

  • To study the effects of the stimulation of GPI in its former part, on the driving tics simple and complex, vocal, the self-mutilations, and the psychopathology of which time, emotions and impulsiveness

    during the 44 months

  • To evaluate the repercussion of this technique on the sociological-professional handicap, operation and the adaptation

    during the 44 months

  • To seek determinants before intervention of the effectiveness of stimulation (determining neurological, psychiatric, neuropsychological, functional)

    during the 44 months

  • To establish correlations between the localization of the studs of stimulation (retiming atlas/IRM) and the symptoms

    during the 44 months

  • +1 more secondary outcomes
