Scientists test 'Smart' brain implant that adjusts to Parkinson's symptoms around the clock

NCT ID NCT07398157

Summary

This study is testing a new approach to deep brain stimulation for Parkinson's disease. Researchers will implant devices that can sense brain signals through less invasive electrodes under the scalp, then use those signals to automatically adjust stimulation levels based on a patient's movement and sleep symptoms. The study will compare this adaptive system to standard continuous stimulation in 24 participants to see which better controls Parkinson's symptoms throughout the day and night.
