Abstract

Embodiments discussed herein facilitate implementation of one or more DBS pulsing strategies that maximize synaptic suppression with the minimum number of stimuli. One example embodiment comprises a non-transitory computer-readable medium storing computer-executable instructions that, when executed, cause a processor to perform operations, comprising: applying deep brain stimulation (DBS) electrical stimulation according to a first mode to cause steady-state excitatory post-synaptic current (EPSC) suppression in a set of synapses; and applying DBS electrical stimulation according to a second mode that is different than the first mode to maintain EPSC suppression in the set of synapses.
