NCT ID NCT07176494
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study looks at two types of anesthesia for replacing the battery of a deep brain stimulator in people with Parkinson's disease. Researchers want to see which method—general anesthesia or regional anesthesia with sedation—provides better pain control and patient satisfaction after surgery. The study will enroll 50 adults aged 40 to 85 who need this battery replacement.
