Brain zap breakthrough aims to stop Parkinson's falls
NCT ID NCT05022147
Summary
This study is testing a new way to program deep brain stimulators to help people with Parkinson's disease walk more steadily and reduce their risk of falling. Researchers are testing a special alternating-frequency pattern in 12 participants who already have a specific type of brain stimulator. The goal is to see if this new setting improves walking and balance while still controlling other Parkinson's symptoms like tremor.
