This early-phase study tests a new type of deep brain stimulation that adapts in real time to a person's movements, aiming to improve walking and motor skills in Parkinson's disease. Ten patients already scheduled for standard DBS surgery will receive this adaptive stimulation an…

This study tests a new way to use deep brain stimulation (DBS) for Parkinson's disease. Instead of constant stimulation, the device automatically switches settings when the person starts walking, aiming to improve gait and balance. Six people who already have a special DBS implan…

This study tests whether adaptive deep brain stimulation (DBS) can reduce or prevent freezing of gait in 20 people with Parkinson's disease. Participants already have DBS implants, and the device will adjust stimulation in real time based on brain signals. Freezing episodes will …
