Precision brain zaps target Parkinson's symptoms

NCT ID NCT05992701

Summary

This study tested a new type of deep brain stimulation (DBS) system designed to better target areas of the brain affected by Parkinson's disease. It involved 26 patients whose symptoms were not well-controlled by medication alone. The goal was to see if this more precise 'directional' stimulation could safely improve movement symptoms and quality of life.
