Summary
This study tested a new type of deep brain stimulation (DBS) that adjusts automatically based on a person's position or body signals. Three people with Multiple System Atrophy (MSA) took part to see if this 'adaptive' DBS could improve walking, sleep, blood pressure, and quality of life. The goal was to make stimulation more personalized and responsive to each patient's needs.
