Subjective satisfaction scales at 1 year and 2 years after deep brain stimulation (DBS). When the degree of subjective satisfaction was assessed by a 10 score scale, cerebral palsy (CP) patients with dystonia showed a score of 5.5±1.0 at 1 year after DBS, but showed a decrease in the satisfaction score of 4.0±1.5 after 2 years following DBS, whereas patients with primary dystonia showed a score of 8.3±0.5 at 1 year after DBS and they further increased to a score of 9.2±0.4 after 2 years following DBS. Consequently, patients with primary dystonia showed a significantly higher subjective satisfaction at 1 year and 2 years following DBS (p<0.05). *p<0.05.
