Vibrotactile Coordinated Reset: A Non-invasive Treatment for Parkinson's Disease 2
The purpose of our study is to evaluate Vibrotactile Coordinated Reset stimulation (vCR) and its effects on motor function in people with Parkinson's disease (PD). vCR will be administered with a device called the Vibrotactile (VT) Touch device. vCR can be used in conjunction with medication and is expected to …
Effects of Pallidal Deep Brain Stimulation Location on Motor Impairment in Parkinson's Disease
This protocol will characterize the effects of deep brain stimulation (DBS) location (both adverse and beneficial) on motor signs in people with Parkinson's disease (PD). This information can be used to inform future DBS protocols to tailor stimulation to the specific needs of a patient. If targeted dorsal GP stimulation …
Clinical Study on the Efficacy of Natural Stem Cell Mobilizers on Parkinson Disease
Parkinson's disease is defined as the progressive loss or deterioration of dopaminergic neurons, Treatment approaches to maintain the normal dopamine level that include medication, surgery, cell therapy supplementation of L-Dihydroxyphenylalanine (L-Dopa), a precursor of dopamina, Stem cells from bone marrow can be mobilized according to the need of repair of …
Real-Time Levodopa Level Monitoring in Parkinson Disease
This project aims to develop a minimally invasive sensor device to monitor levodopa levels in real time. We will test the accuracy, tolerability, and safety of this device in people with Parkinson disease.
Multiple Objective Particle Swarm Optimization Postural Instability Gait Disorder
Sixty patients will be enrolled in this study who are treated for Parkinson's disease (PD) with bilateral deep brain stimulation of subthalamic nucleus (STN) or globus pallidus (GP), who have a pre- operative 7 Tesla MRI including diffusion tensor imaging for tractography and a postoperative head CT for electrode localization, …
Telemedicine Intervention in Patients With Chronic Pain in PD
Pain is a very common and disabling symptom in Parkinson's disease, yet it is often untreated. This study will assess the impact of home-based physical and cognitive exercise interventions to reduce pain in this disease. This approach would offer an easily implemented and affordable way to encourage and maintain use …
A New 3D Virtual Reality-based Upper Limb Training to Improve Dexterity in Parkinson's Disease
We investigate the impact of a 4-week virtual reality-based upper limb training in Parkinson's disease. The benefits on dexterity of this training program will be evaluated. For these purposes, a randomised, two arm, single assessor blind, parallel design with a monocentric, study setup will be performed.
Personalized Real-Time DBS and PD Mechanisms
A prospective cohort of patients scheduled to undergo deep brain stimulation (DBS) implantation surgery for the treatment of Parkinson's disease as per standard of care will be invited to participate in this study. This mechanistic study is aimed at better understanding the role of basal ganglia beta band (11-35 Hz) …
Montelukast in Parkinson Disease
Parkinson's disease (PD) is the second most common neurodegenerative disorder after Alzheimer's disease (AD). Clinical manifestations of PD can vary, but a formal diagnosis relies on the presence of bradykinesia with rigidity and/or rest tremor according to Movement Disorder Society (MDS) criteria for PD. Non-motor symptoms, such as hyposmia, constipation, …
Bright Light Therapy for Non-motor Symptoms in Parkinson's Disease
This is a randomized placebo- and active-controlled trial for assessing the efficacy of bright light therapy for sleep and mood symptoms in patients with Parkinson's disease
