Brain implant learns your sleep schedule to fight tremors
NCT ID NCT06635811
Summary
This study is testing a new 'smart' version of deep brain stimulation (DBS) for people with essential tremor, a condition causing uncontrollable shaking. The goal is to see if the implanted device can automatically turn off stimulation when it detects you are asleep, which may reduce side effects, improve tremor control, and save battery life. Researchers will enroll 25 people who already have a specific type of DBS device to test the safety and feasibility of this automatic system.
