This protocol will leverage the novel (on-label, FDA-approved) local field potential measuring capability of the Medtronic Percept™ PC or RC DBS system to study the effects of globus pallidus internus, globus pallidus externus (GPi, GPe), and subthalamic nucleus (STN) DBS on: the wash-out and wash-in dynamics of motor behavior and …
With this study, the investigators want to investigate whether computerized speech analysis can be used to reliably and objectively detect motor, emotional, and cognitive fluctuations in Parkinson's disease patients.
This study aims to determine whether direct brain stimulation of specific regions and ranges improves cognition in people with Parkinsons Disease (PD) who already have a deep brain stimulator implanted. Research activities consist of 32 subjects undergoing stimulation changes to their device and being administered neurocognitive tests to evaluate the …
This study will help us better understand how the brain works in people with Parkinson's disease (PD). PD is a brain disease that gets worse over time, and affects over 10 million people world-wide. A common treatment for PD is Deep Brain Stimulation (DBS). To improve DBS therapy for PD, …
This is a phase I, interventional, single arm, open-label, clinical study to evaluate the safety and efficacy of the striatal transplantation of autologous induced neural stem cell-derived DA precursor cells in Parkinson's Disease patients.
The purpose of the Chinese Parkinson's disease with GBA variants Registry (CPD-GBAR) is to develop a database of patients of Parkinson's disease with Glucocerebrosidase (GBA) gene variants in mainland China.
Postural instability is one of the cardinal signs in Parkinson's disease (PD). It represents one of the most disabling symptoms in the advanced stages of the disease. It is associated with frequent falls and loss of independence. The aim of the current study is to assess the long term efficacy …
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.
Current research and theories have highlighted that the parameters linked to movement planning, e.g. the decision to select a movement goal, and adaptation, e.g. the ability to update control dependent on a novel dynamical context, are update quickly and within an ongoing movement in the general population. In parallel, it …
Background \- In deep brain stimulation (DBS), a device called a neurostimulator is placed in the chest. It is attached to wires in parts of the brain that affect movement. DBS might help people with movement disorders like Parkinson s disease (PD), dystonia, and essential tremor (ET). Objective \- To …
