Scientists hunt Brain's 'Warning Signs' to prevent memory loss from Parkinson's treatment

NCT ID NCT05933681

Summary

This study aims to understand why some Parkinson's patients experience memory problems after receiving Deep Brain Stimulation (DBS) therapy. Researchers will measure brain activity in 160 patients during and after their DBS surgery to identify specific signals linked to these cognitive side effects. The goal is to use these signals to help doctors better place and program the DBS device to minimize memory issues.
