Stroke has a high prevalence in Pakistan, at an alarming rate of 250 per 100 000 people. Although various treatment options are available, they are not ideal for Pakistan due to their high cost, restricted availability, and time sensitivity. In 1997, the FDA-approved deep brain stimulation (DBS) for Parkinson's disease and it was first performed in Pakistan in 2014. DBS has also proved effective for restoring post-stroke mobility, according to a trial from August 2023. DBS has the potential to revolutionize post-stroke rehabilitation in Pakistan; however, further research is required into its effectiveness and its limitations must be addressed first.
