NCT ID NCT07182058

First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026

Summary

This study tests a non-invasive device called Sphere V3.0 that delivers gentle electrical pulses to the scalp to improve movement problems in Parkinson's disease. Thirty adults with Parkinson's will use the device at home for 13 minutes each weekday for 3 weeks, then be monitored for 3 more weeks. All assessments are done virtually via video calls, and everyone receives the active treatment—there is no placebo group.
