Smart brain pacemaker: new algorithm aims to Fine-Tune Parkinson's treatment
NCT ID NCT07215481
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study tests an automated programming method for deep brain stimulation (DBS) in people with Parkinson's disease. Fifteen participants who recently had DBS surgery will try the new algorithm and perform motor tasks like walking and finger tapping. The goal is to see if the automated settings improve movement better than standard care. This is a short, 1-2 day experiment, not a long-term treatment change.
