EMBRACE Tremor BiFUS
This is a post-market (Phase IV) randomized, controlled, blinded, multicenter study with the aim to determine the added value of staged bilateral Exablate thalamotomy compared to a group of patients on previous unilateral treatment combined with local standard medical treatment.
Directional Bilateral Thalamic Patterned Stimulation (Chronos)
Population Size and Eligible Patients: The investigators aim to recruit 5 to 10 patients with tremors who have previously undergone Ventral Intermedius Deep Brain Stimulation (VIM-DBS) treatment but have experienced early or late loss of benefits. Additionally, the investigators will enroll ten patients with essential tremor who require VIM-DBS surgery. …
Attention and Eye Movement in Parkinson's Disease
The goal of this observational and interventional study is to understand how therapeutic deep brain stimulation (DBS) affects attention, perception and cognition in participants with Parkinson's disease (PD) and essential tremor (ET). The main questions it aims to answer are: Does impaired control of attention and eye movement in PD …
Dual-Site Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation of the Supplementary Motor Area and Cerebellum for the Treatment of Essential Tremor.
Essential tremor is a common movement disorder that causes involuntary shaking, mainly during voluntary actions such as writing or holding objects. Recent research suggests that essential tremor is not caused by a single brain area, but by abnormal activity within a network that includes the cerebellum and motor areas of …
Deep Brain Stimulation of the Deep Cerebellar Nuclei for Refractory Tremor
This objective of this study is to document the safety and feasibility of electrical stimulation of the deep cerebellar nuclei for refractory tremor using the Medtronic Percept RC Deep Brain Stimulation System. The population will consist of patients that have either failed a prior intervention (Vim DBS or HIFU thalamotomy) …
Sensory-specific Peripheral Stimulation for Tremor Management
The purpose of this study is to understand the neurophysiological mechanisms of peripheral electrical stimulation (PES) in modulating supraspinal tremorogenic input to motoneurons. For this purpose, the investigators will use transcutaneous PES, high-density electromyography (HD-EMG), transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS), electroencephalography (EEG), magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), and neuromusculoskeletal modelling. This study …
24-months Study to Evaluate Safety and Efficacy of Peroneal Transcutaneous NeuroModulation in Subjects With Parkinson's Disease and Essential Tremor
This study investigates the long-term safety and tolerability of home peroneal eTNM® therapy using the URIS I™ device in subjects with Parkinson's disease (PD) or Essential Tremor (ET). Previously, a 6-week open-label pilot study with 24 PD or ET patients demonstrated that home-based peroneal eTNM® is safe, well-tolerated, and has …
Modulate Tremor Severity With Low-intensity Focused Ultrasound Stimulation Targeting the Deep Nucleus of Patients With Refractory Hand Tremor.
The study plans to recruit 12 patients with Parkinsonian tremor, essential tremor, or dystonic tremor. After receiving NaviFUS-ctbTUS stimulation, the improvement in their tremor will be recorded.
Deep Brain Stimulation Surgery for Movement Disorders
Background Deep brain stimulation (DBS) is an approved surgery for certain movement disorders, like Parkinson's disease, that do not respond well to other treatments. DBS uses a battery-powered device called a neurostimulator (like a pacemaker) that is placed under the skin in the chest. It is used to stimulate the …
Cortical-Basal Ganglia Speech Networks
In this research study the researchers want to learn more about brain activity related to speech perception and production.
