Smart brain pacemaker tested to Fine-Tune Parkinson's treatment

NCT ID NCT07106242

Summary

This study tested a new 'adaptive' deep brain stimulation (aDBS) system for people with Parkinson's disease. The device is designed to sense a patient's brain signals and automatically adjust its electrical stimulation, potentially using less energy than standard, always-on stimulators. Researchers compared this smart system to the traditional continuous stimulation in 25 participants who already had compatible DBS implants.
