Summary
This study tests a new way to use deep brain stimulation (DBS) for Parkinson's disease. Standard DBS helps movement but can sometimes cause thinking or mood problems. The researchers want to see if adding a low-frequency signal to a different part of the brain, along with the usual high-frequency signal, is safe and can improve symptoms without harming thinking or mood. Ten adults with Parkinson's who already have a DBS device will take part.
