First seen Apr 10, 2026 · Last updated May 11, 2026 · Updated 6 times
Summary
This study tests whether adding low-frequency stimulation to the standard high-frequency deep brain stimulation (DBS) can improve Parkinson's motor symptoms while reducing side effects like depression, impulsivity, and thinking problems. Ten adults with Parkinson's who already have a DBS implant will try this dual-frequency approach. The goal is to see if it is safe, tolerable, and effective.
