Abstract
An apparatus for treating neurological disorders comprising at least one electrode implantable in a patient's brain and a processing and stimulation device connected to the at least one electrode. The processing and stimulation device comprises at least one stimulation module adapted to generate a stimulation signal characterised by a plurality of parameters; at least one acquisition module adapted to acquire a signal characteristic of cerebral activity and determine its power in at least one frequency band; and at least one control module of at least one parameter of the stimulation signal as a function of the power of the signal characteristic of cerebral activity acquired, based on a transfer function having a saturating trend, wherein the transfer function is configured to set the at least one parameter of the stimulation signal differently dependent on a plurality of power ranges, by keeping the parameter within a predetermined stimulation range.
