The effect of dexmedetomidine on the firing properties of STN neurons in Parkinson's disease

Dexmedetomidine (an alpha‐2 adrenergic agonist) sedation is commonly used during subthalamic nucleus (STN) deep‐brain stimulation (DBS). Its effects on the electrophysiological characteristics of human STN neurons are largely unknown. We hypothesised that dexmedetomidine modulates the firing rates a...
