Ventral periaqueductal grey stimulation alters heart rate variability in humans with chronic pain.
BACKGROUND: The midbrain periaqueductal grey (PAG) area is important for both pain modulation and cardiovascular control via the autonomic nervous system (ANS). While changes in blood pressure dependent upon dorsal or ventral electrode positioning have been described with PAG deep brain stimulation...
