Who this trial is looking for
This trial is looking for people with Parkinson's disease who have a specific brain device called Deep Brain Stimulation. Participants will walk to a beat while researchers observe their walking patterns.
Are You a Good Fit for This Trial?
You may be able to join if
- I have been diagnosed with Parkinson disease
- I have Deep Brain Stimulation of the subthalamic nucleus
You may not be able to join if
- I cannot follow directions for study procedures
Summarized in plain language from this trial's official eligibility criteria. The full criteria are further down this page — only the research team can confirm whether you qualify.
Think this trial could be right for you?
Answer three quick questions written from this study's own rules to see if you may qualify. No account needed to find out.

About This Trial
Participants will be asked to walk along with the metronome beats (RAS) during the participants' stimulation state (ON or OFF) for four minutes for each state.
The researcher will collect the gait parameters (cadence, velocity, and stride length) of patients before, during, and after RAS in both DBS ON and OFF states.
Using MDS-UPDRS, participants' gait patterns will be collected before and afte…
