Simplified, Scalable, 24-hour Adaptive DBS in Parkinson's Disease (NCT07398157)
Subgaleal Cortical Electrodes in Patients With Parkinson's Disease Undergoing Deep-brain Stimulation Therapy for Sensing and Adaptive Deep-brain Stimulation Over a 24-hour Period.
🩺 Plain-English Summary (8th-Grade Level)
The purpose of this study is to test a new way to treat Parkinson's disease (PD). Subjects will be implanted with deep brain stimulator (DBS) devices and electrodes placed under the scalp. The main questions it aims to answer are: * Is there a less invasive method to collect useful brain signals? Find out if these brain signals can be related to movement and/or sleep symptoms. * How to use these brain signals to tailor adaptive deep brain stimulation settings for movement and/or sleep symptoms Researchers will compare study derived adaptive DBS settings to subject's clinically programmed continuous DBS settings to see which is better at treating patients PD symptoms.
