NCT ID NCT05625386
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study tested whether a high-dose magnetic stimulation (TMS) targeting both motor and cognitive brain areas could better reduce freezing of gait in people with Parkinson's disease compared to standard low-dose stimulation of just the motor area. The trial planned to enroll 64 adults aged 40 and older who experience freezing episodes. The main goal was to improve walking and reduce freezing, measured by a questionnaire and a timed walking test.
