NCT ID NCT07637955

First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026

Summary

This study looks at how a brain region called the subthalamic nucleus (STN) is involved in sleep and wakefulness in people with Parkinson's disease. Researchers will record brain activity during sleep using special electrodes already implanted for deep brain stimulation. The goal is to better understand sleep disturbances in Parkinson's and find ways to improve them. Fifteen adults scheduled for STN deep brain stimulation surgery at Grenoble University Hospital will participate.
