What the study statuses mean

This study's is highlighted.

Recruitment status, easiest to join first

Recruiting now This study
This trial is taking on new participants right now.
Not yet recruiting
Registered, but not yet taking participants.
By invitation only
Not open to general applications. Only people the study team invites can take part.
Paused
Paused for now. It may or may not start again.
Ongoing
Running, but no longer taking on new participants.
Completed
The trial has finished. Results may not be published yet.
Stopped early
Stopped early, before it reached the end. That can be for many reasons, including safety.
Cancelled
Cancelled before anyone took part.

Expanded access (not trials)

Expanded access
Not a trial. This treatment can be requested outside a study, case by case, for people who qualify.
Expanded access (paused)
Not a trial. The treatment can normally be requested outside a study, but is unavailable right now.
Expanded access (ended)
Not a trial. The treatment could once be requested outside a study, but no longer can.
Approved
The treatment has been approved, so it is available normally rather than through this programme.

When the status isn't known

Details not published
The full record has not been published yet, so there is little to show here.
Status unknown
This status has not been confirmed recently, so it may be out of date.

Summary

This study looks at whether walking patterns measured by wearable sensors can predict how well deep brain stimulation (DBS) will work for people with dystonia, a movement disorder. About 50 adults scheduled for DBS surgery will wear sensors before the procedure. Researchers will compare their walking data with standard symptom scores and quality-of-life surveys taken before and after surgery to find clues that point to the best outcomes.

Lead sponsor

Other sponsor

The registry's catch-all category, for sponsors it does not file as a company, a government agency, or a research network.

Who can take part

This study's own entry requirements. Only the study team can say for certain whether you qualify.

Who is studied

The study population consists of patients clinically diagnosed with isolated dystonia who are candidates for Deep Brain Stimulation (DBS) surgery at Ruijin Hospital. These participants have motor symptoms that are refractory to optimal medical therapy and are scheduled for elective surgical intervention.

Ages

18 to 70 years

Sex

Anyone

Healthy volunteers

Not accepted

This study is not open to healthy volunteers. The entry requirements below say who it is open to.

Show the full entry requirements

Copied word for word from the study's registry entry, so the wording is the study team's rather than ours.

Inclusion Criteria: * Clinically diagnosed with primary or isolated dystonia. * Scheduled to undergo bilateral Deep Brain Stimulation (DBS) surgery. * Able to walk independently or with assistance (sufficient to perform gait analysis). * Willing to participate and sign informed consent. Exclusion Criteria: * History of other neurological disorders affecting gait (e.g., stroke, severe neuropathy). * Significant orthopedic issues preventing gait assessment. * Cognitive impairment preventing cooperation with study procedures. * Previous functional neurosurgery.
