Table 1. Monopolar Symptom Threshold Assessment. Through this Monopolar Survey, Thresholds for Tremor Amplitude Improvement and the Development of Irreversible, Stimulation-induced Side Effects were Identified per Traditional Contact Assessment. Segmented Monopolar Survey was not Conducted.

Improvement Threshold* Irreversible SE Threshold+ SE Description+
Left VIM
 4 1.0 mA 1.2 mA Limb ataxia
 3 0.6 mA 1.2 mA Limb ataxia
 2 1.2 mA 1.0 mA Limb ataxia and tingling
 1 >2.0 mA ˆ 1.0 mA Tingling
Right VIM
 12 0.8 mA 1.2 mA Limb ataxia
 11 0.6 mA 1.2 mA Limb ataxia
 10 1.4 mA 1.6 mA Limb ataxia and tingling
 9 >2.0 mA ˆ 1.4 mA Tingling
*

Improvement defined as any clinically evident limb tremor amplitude reduction.

+

SE: side effect.

^Tremor reduction not achieved prior to intolerable SE.
