Deep Brain Stimulation Treatment Cost in United Arab Emirates

Deep Brain Stimulation in U.A.E

The United Arab Emirates has some of the hospitals with the most cutting edge and latest tech in the world of neurobiology. Not only do the hospitals in the United Arab Emirates cater to patients from their own country, but they also cater to anyone who wants to visit the UAE for special procedures like the deep brain stimulation procedure.  

Cost Comparison

The deep brain stimulation surgery option may sound very expensive considering that a device is implanted into your brain. Well, it is not as expensive as one may be inclined to believe. The cost of this surgery, especially in countries that are quite open to what people call medical tourism is quite less compared to other countries in the west and east. The main cost factor that is to be taken into account is the cost of the device. Considering that the electrical device is to be implanted in your body, it is made of special materials and that forms a bulk of the cost of having this procedure done.

About the Deep Brain Stimulation

Deep brain stimulation (DBS) is a neurosurgical procedure that involves the implantation of electrodes within the specific targeted areas of the brain. It is used to treat a variety of disabling neurological symptoms.

Deep brain stimulation procedures are used to treat several disorders, such as:

  • Parkinson's disease
  • Dystonia
  • Epilepsy
  • Tourette syndrome
  • Obsessive-compulsive disorder
  • Chronic Pain

Deep brain stimulation uses a neurostimulator, commonly referred to as a deep brain stimulator, to deliver electrical stimulation to targeted areas in the brain that control movement.

The impulse sent by the deep brain stimulator interferes with and blocks the electrical signals that cause tremors and other Parkinson’s disease symptoms. The targeted areas most often include the thalamus, subthalamic nucleus, and globus pallidus. Deep brain stimulation procedure has a long history of research. It was first introduced in 1987 and The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approved deep brain stimulation treatment for essential tremor and Parkinson's disease in 1997.

A pacemaker-like device inserted under the skin in the upper chest regulates the amount of stimulation during deep brain stimulation. The electrodes in the brain are connected to this device by a wire that passes beneath the skin.

Deep brain stimulation treatment has proven effective in most cases, but it could potentially result in serious complications and side effects. This is the main reason why deep brain stimulation treatment is used only for patients whose symptoms are not appropriately controlled with medications.

How is Deep Brain Stimulation performed?

During the deep brain stimulation therapy, the neurosurgeon first uses an MRI or computed tomography CT scan to identify the exact target within the brain where electrical nerve signals generate the symptoms. Some doctors may use microelectrode recording (a small wire that observes the activity of nerve cells in the target area) to more specifically and precisely identify the target in the brain that will be stimulated during the treatment.

After identifying the targets in the brain, there are several ways in which the permanent electrodes are placed into the target areas. The patient is given a local anesthetic before the procedure, and then the neurosurgeon implants the electrode by making small holes in the skull. The implanted electrodes are connected with extensions (a thin insulated wire) connected with the stimulator. These extensions are passed by some incisions under the skin of the head, neck, and shoulder. A deep brain stimulator is a battery-operated medical device similar to a heart pacemaker. It is implanted under the skin near the collarbone or in the chest.

The surgeon schedules a time to program the generator a few weeks following surgery. The generator continuously pulses electricity into the brain once it has been programmed. With the help of a specialized remote control, the Patient may operate the generator and switch it on or off.

Recovery from Deep Brain Stimulation

  • Typically, patients need to stay in the hospital until their incision-related pain is under control, and they can eat, drink and walk. Mostly, the patients are required to stay for only one night at the hospital after the surgery, but some patients may be advised to stay for at least two nights. The patient will not be able to shower or wet the area around the incision until the wound has completely healed.
  • Deep brain stimulation programming takes place about 3 to 4 weeks after the surgery and this is when the actual benefits of the treatment can be reaped.
  • After a few weeks of surgery, the neurostimulator (IPG) is activated by a specialist. The specialist can easily program the IPG from outside the patient’s body using a special remote control. The amount of stimulation is customized as per specific needs. Stimulation may be constant or the specialist may advise to turn the IPG off at night and back on in the morning, depending on the condition of the patient. The batteries of the stimulator may last for three to five years. The IPG replacement procedure is relatively simple. Inform your doctor immediately in case you experience any problems related to speech, balance, and coordination or in case you experience mood swings, numbness, muscle tightness, or lightheadedness.

Frequently Asked Questions

Why should you opt for Deep Brain Stimulation in U.A.E?

Brain surgery doesn't matter whatever the type of surgery is, is a complicated affair. Only surgeons who know exactly what they are doing should be doing these procedures. One wrong move could paralyze you and make you immobile. Thus, only the most experienced doctors must be called in for this type of crucial surgeries. It is not enough that the surgeon has performed this surgery on mannequins and on virtual software, the surgeon must have real-life experience. And this is where the United Arab Emirates shine above most of the other countries. The UAE has pretty much, a lot of surgeons who have performed this procedure before.

How much does Deep Brain Stimulation Cost in U.A.E?

The cost of deep brain stimulation in the UAE is comparatively less expensive than other places. This surgery typically costs about 50,000 US dollars. This might seem very stiff, but considering the complexity of the procedure, this price is warranted. Besides, if you add up the costs of your daily medications for diseases like Parkinson's you would still be spending less on the surgical option. Doctor visits are also cut down. Consider this a worthy investment in your health.

Which are the top neurosurgeons for Deep Brain Stimulation in U.A.E?

The topmost neurosurgeons for deep brain stimulation are all very experienced. They have performed this procedure a thousand times on other virtual means before they even lifted their scalpels. This not only makes them more versatile, but this also gives them the broad patient profiles that they might have to operate on. To say the very least, no good doctor does this procedure without knowing what to so. The size of the implant is just about 1 mm in width. Now with such a small device, you need very high accuracy, one false move could lead to catastrophic effects.

What is the success rate of Deep Brain Stimulation in U.A.E?

Brain stimulation surgery is performed only with extremely high-quality materials. Also, the environment that the patient must be kept should be highly sterile. The Hospitals in the United Arab Emirates maintain very strict cleanliness and hygiene standards. These standards are comparable if not better than the standards that medical centers in other countries follow. Hence, the success rates of deep brain stimulation surgeries in the United Arab Emirates are very high. There are almost no cases that have had serious complications due to the surgery or surgeon when performed in the UAE. The success of the surgery also depends on the after-surgery care of the patient. The week after surgery is crucial for the patient. The hospitals in the UAE are very serious about this.

Which are the best cities for Deep Brain Stimulation surgery in U.A.E?

The most sought out cities in the United Arab Emirates for the deep brain stimulation surgery in Dubai and Abu Dhabi. Not only are the transport facilities, within the city, they have international airports which also cater to patients who are coming in from different countries. These cities also have the highest concentration of established medical research centres.
