Who this trial is looking for
This trial is looking for people with Parkinson's disease who have a Medtronic Percept PC device already implanted. Participants will receive different stimulation patterns to see how they affect their symptoms.
Are You a Good Fit for This Trial?
You may be able to join if
- I have been diagnosed with idiopathic Parkinson's Disease.
- I have a Medtronic Percept PC implanted.
- I am optimized for clinical stimulation and medication for at least 3 months after my DBS surgery.
- I consent to participate in the study.
- I have a robust beta peak as detected by the device.
- I have a good response to stimulation, improving my UPDRS III score by at least 30%.
You may not be able to join if
- I am not currently implanted with the Medtronic Percept INS.
- I do not want to participate in the study.
- I have unstable stimulation that needs frequent adjustments.
- I experience significant side effects from stimulation.
- I need unusual programming parameters for my device.
- I have an implanted cardiac device.
- My Medtronic Percept PC indicates it needs replacement at the start of the study.

About This Trial
This is an open-label, non-randomized, proof-of-concept comparison of clinical vs. research stimulation patterns in patients with Parkinson's disease (PD) being treated with Deep Brain Stimulation (DBS) through the Medtronic Percept PC DBS device. The investigators hypothesize that stimulation patterns designed to better target excessive synchrony in a patient-tailored manner may result in more ef…
