Globally, neurological disorders are the main causes of mortality; these account for approximately 12% of total number of deaths. Of these, cerebrovascular diseases are responsible for 85% of deaths. Parkinson's disease is the most common neurodegenerative movement disorder after Alzheimer's. Symptoms associated with this disease include tremors, slowness of movement, muscle stiffness and trouble with balance.

Drug therapy is the most effective treatment option available to control Parkinson's disease in the initial stages; however, a large number of medicines are required to control the disease during the advanced stages. In late stage of the disease, deep brain stimulation (DBS) surgical treatment is used to control the involuntary symptoms. DBS is an effective, clinically proven and the U.S. FDA approved advanced surgical option to treat mild to severe Parkinson's disease. The market for DBS devices is expected to grow at a healthy rate during the forecast period of 2013 to 2019. However, high cost involvement in the surgical procedure may hamper the growth of the market. A growing burden of Parkinson's disease on the healthcare system coupled with uncertain economic conditions in the U.S. and Europe has forced Original Equipment Manufacturers (OEMs) to develop cost-effective devices for the treatment of neurological movement disorders.

The research report on DBS devices that are used to treat Parkinson's disease provides a detailed analysis of the global market and helps in understanding the driving forces responsible for the growth of the market. The report discusses the DBS devices market for Parkinson's disease on the basis of prevalence of the disease in four regions: North America, Europe, Asia Pacific and Latin America.
