Study Summary
This study focuses on lateral hypothalamic area (LHA) deep brain stimulation (DBS) for severe obesity. In a previous pilot study, three subjects were implanted with a DBS electrode into the LHA under an Investigational Device Exemption (IDE) and IRB approved study at West Virginia University. That study demonstrated the safety of DBS of the LHA in these patients. These patients, who met the enrollment criteria of having prior placement of LHA DBS in accordance with previous study protocol, were eligible for this study with a goal of determining optimal DBS settings.
