NCT04449068

Brief Summary

Within an ongoing deep brain stimulation (DBS) program for Tourette syndrome (TS) at the Department of Neurology, Pitié-Salpêtrière Hospital, Paris/France, the investigator team plans to evaluate patients pre-operatively and then at one year intervals post-operatively until the 5-year mark has been achieved. The investigator team will investigate tic severity, psychiatric co-morbidities, quality of life, and neuropsychological measures.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Measure the severity of tics

    Measure the severity of tics, determined by the YGTSS-R (Yale Global Tic Severity Scale score - revised) . The overall score is between 0 (no TICS) and 100 (severity in TICS) therefore a score decrease is expected .

    Month 60

Study Arms (1)

Evaluation of patients with Tourette's Gilles Syndrome

Neurological and neuropsychological evaluations of patients with Tourette's Gilles syndrome treated with high frequency bilateral stimulation of the anterior part of the internal pallid globus

Other: Neurological and neuropsychological Follow-up after deep brain stimulationDevice: EEG recordings

Interventions

Investigation of tic severity, psychiatric co-morbidities, quality of life, and neuropsychologcial measures until the 5-year after deep brain stimulation (DBS)

Evaluation of patients with Tourette's Gilles Syndrome

EEG recordings at 2 visits (V1 and V2)
