NCT ID NCT04032470
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Aug 05, 2026 · Updated 4 times
Summary
This study is collecting information from 500 people with essential tremor who are using a Boston Scientific deep brain stimulation (DBS) system, which is already approved for use. The goal is to see how the device affects quality of life in real-world settings, not just in controlled experiments. Participants will fill out questionnaires over time to track changes.
