Brain wave breakthrough: could smart DBS shorten dystonia treatment tuning?
NCT ID NCT07309133
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study tests whether electrical signals recorded from the brain during deep brain stimulation (DBS) can help doctors fine-tune settings faster for people with dystonia. About 25 adults who are already scheduled for DBS surgery will have their brain activity monitored during clinic visits and at home. The goal is to see if using these signals leads to better symptom control compared to the usual trial-and-error method.
