Scalp electrodes could Fine-Tune brain stimulation for Parkinson's

NCT ID NCT07398157

First seen Feb 12, 2026 · Last updated May 13, 2026 · Updated 8 times

Summary

This study is testing a less invasive method to collect brain signals from people with Parkinson's disease who are already getting deep brain stimulation (DBS). Researchers will place small electrodes under the scalp to see if they can detect signals related to movement and sleep problems. The goal is to use these signals to automatically adjust DBS settings in real time, potentially improving symptom control compared to standard continuous stimulation. About 24 adults aged 25-75 with Parkinson's will take part.
