Abstract
Essential tremor is the most common pathological tremor, with a prevalence of 6.3% in people over 65 years of age. This disorder interferes with a patient's ability to carry out activities of daily living independently, and treatment with medical and surgical interventions is often insufficient or contraindicated. Mechanical orthoses have not been widely adopted by patients due to discomfort and lack of discretion. Over the past 30 years, peripheral electrical stimulation has been investigated as a possible treatment for patients who have not found other treatment options to be satisfactory, with wearable devices revolutionizing this emerging approach in recent years. In this paper, an overview of essential tremor and its current medical and surgical treatment options are presented. Following this, tremor detection, measurement and characterization methods are explored with a focus on the measurement options that can be incorporated into wearable devices. Then, novel interventions for essential tremor are described, with a detailed review of open and closed-loop peripheral electrical stimulation methods. Finally, discussion of the need for wearable closed-loop peripheral electrical stimulation devices for essential tremor, approaches in their implementation, and gaps in the literature for further research are presented.

Murphy I, Sivashankar A, Gadoud A. Refractory angina is a growing challenge for palliative medicine: a systematic review of non-invasive interventions. BMJ Support Palliat Care 2020; 12:e869-e881. [PMID: 32499404 DOI: 10.1136/bmjspcare-2020-002202] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/12/2020] [Revised: 03/31/2020] [Accepted: 05/04/2020] [Indexed: 01/10/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Refractory angina can have a significant effect on quality of life. Non-invasive interventions have been suggested but there are few guidelines on management. Our aim was to systematically review all studies that reported non-invasive interventions for refractory angina and report on their effectiveness and safety. METHODS We performed a literature search of six databases and a grey literature search. Treatments considered first line or second line according to the European Society of Cardiology were excluded, as were interventions that had undergone review within the last 3 years. Design, setting and outcomes were extracted and quality was assessed. A narrative synthesis was undertaken, including an analysis of adverse effects. RESULTS 4476 studies were screened, 14 studies were included in our analysis. Interventions were specialist multidisciplinary programmes, transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation (TENS), perhexiline, medical optimisation, morphine and intranasal alfentanil. The effects of specialist programmes and perhexiline treatment were mixed. Positive effects were reported with TENS, opioids and medical optimisation, with improvements in symptoms, exercise capacity and quality of life. No major adverse effects were noted in any of the treatments. CONCLUSION There are non-invasive treatments for refractory angina that are overlooked by current guidelines. While the quality of these studies varies, positive changes have been reported in symptoms, exercise tolerance and quality of life with few adverse effects. There is a need for further research into these treatments which could be useful within the contexts of cardiology and palliative care.
