Who this trial is looking for

This trial is looking for people with Parkinson's disease to see if a new way of programming deep brain stimulation can help them better. Participants will have deep brain stimulation already in place and will take part during their first programming session.

Are You a Good Fit for This Trial?

You may be able to join if

  • I have been diagnosed with Parkinson's disease.
  • I have deep brain stimulation using the Percept DBS device.
  • I can give informed consent for the study.
  • I am willing to participate during my initial programming session.
  • I am between 21 and 89 years old.

You may not be able to join if

  • I cannot follow the study protocol.
  • I have atypical Parkinsonism.
  • I have mood or personality issues that might interfere with the study.

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.

About This Trial
Deep brain stimulation (DBS) effectively alleviates motor symptoms in Parkinson's disease (PD). However, current programming is manual and time-consuming. This study will evaluate physiology-based programming using local field potentials (LFPs) to identify optimal stimulation parameters. Specifically, DBS contact selection based on beta power and a broad-band approach will be compared with convent…
