DBS in psychiatric disorders Neurosurgical Clinics of North America, 14: XV-XVI, 2003
Research in this domain should meet the following minimal requirements :
Study requirements 1. An ethics committee should approve the investigational protocol
Study requirements 2. A patient assessment committee should evaluate each patient
Acceptability of capsulotomy and DBS for OCD • 84 psychiatrists questioned • 73 (87%) completed anonymous questionnaire
Requirements for the decision for capsulotomy or DBS neurosurgeon +pt 0% + neurosurgeon+pt 3% committee++neurosurgeon+pt 97%
Treatment of psychiatric patients with DBS remains investigational and is NOT considered standard therapy.
Treatment of psychiatric patients with DBS remains investigational and is NOT considered standard therapy. FDA 2009 : Humanitariandeviceexemption (HDE) for DBS in OCD
In Europe : CE-mark • Treatment of psychiatric patients with DBS remains investigational and is NOT considered standard therapy. FDA 2009 : Humanitariandeviceexemption (HDE) for DBS in OCD
Study requirements 3. Candidates for DBS surgery should meet defined criteria for severity, chronicity, disability and treatment refractoriness
Study requirements 4. Able to provide their informed consent.
Study requirements 5. The study should be conducted at or supervised by a clinical research center.
Study requirements 6. The investigative team : A. A functional neurosurgical team with established experience in DBS B. A team of psychiatrists with extensive experience in the psychiatric condition under investigation

This work can not go forward without interactions with industry
Investigators should not be driven by self-interest when pursuing corporate support but They should be motivated by a desire to pursue important scientific work to enhance access to novel therapies
Investigators should, “disclose and justify” why receipt of corporate funding is needed to sustain the work
Investigators should seek to balance funding from corporate sources and other funders in order to dilute perceived and real conflicts.
Conflicted investigators should be able to pursue their scientific work in order to elucidate mechanism of action and ensure the safety of early phase studies. But they should assume a step-back role as soon as feasible in order to minimize the possibility generating data which might be open to critique
Investigators should err on the side of over-disclosure to ensure transparency.
Investigators should not publish data in journals whose editorial content is controlled by their sponsor.
Investigators should not be precluded from publishing negative results
Relationship medical researchers – industry • Some journals view it as disqualifying, despite the critical content of the argument • Others accept mere disclosure • Such conflict of interest, if properly disclosed and managed, should be viewed with editorial neutrality (European Academy)

Enhancement If availability of purchasable mental enhancements increases It may lead to unequal social distribution of wealth, and hence of social opportunities Governments should counteract
DBS for psychiatric disorders in prisoners • Not in the research phase (one should not use vulnerable people for research) • DBS for freedom versus DBS for treatment Try to untie both
