Summary

This study looks at brain activity in 25 people with dystonia who are getting deep brain stimulation (DBS). The goal is to find brain signals that can help doctors adjust the stimulation more quickly and personally. Participants will use a special pacemaker that records brain signals for a year, along with weekly symptom reports and monthly check-ups.

Who can take part

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

Who is studied

All patients with dystonia who receive pallidal deep brain stimulation with the Percept IPG in the study centers are offered to participate in the study. Since dystonia is a variable condition that might also affect young patients, also children and youths will, together with their parents/legal guardians, be informed about the study and consented as possible.

Ages
