The STEREO-DBS Study: 7-Tesla MRI Brain Network Analysis for Deep Brain Stimulation
Rationale: Deep brain stimulation (DBS) of the nucleus subthalamicus (STN) is an effective surgical treatment for the patients with advanced Parkinson's disease, despite optimal pharmacological treatment. However, individual improvement after DBS remains variable and 50% of patients show insufficient benefit. To date, DBS-electrode placement and settings in the highly connected …
Combined STN and NBM Deep Brain Stimulation for Mild Cognitive Impairment in Parkinson's Disease
The goal of this clinical trial is to evaluate the safety and tolerability of a novel deep brain stimulation (DBS) of the Subthalamic Nucleus (STN) and Nucleus Basalis of Meynert (NBM) to treat cognitive and cognitive-motor symptoms in individuals with Parkinson's disease. The main question it aims to answer is: …
Identifying Local Field Potential Biomarkers for Obsessive-compulsive Disorder Treatment With Deep Brain Stimulation
Obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD) is a complex and severe mental illness characterized by multiple symptoms and is considered a leading cause of non-fatal health loss. However, nearly 20% of patients do not respond to standard pharmacological or psychological treatments. Currently, we lack objective brain-based biomarkers. To address this issue, we used …
Cerebellar Deep Brain Stimulation for Movement Disorders in Cerebral Palsy in Children and Young Adults
The purpose of this study is to test the safety of placing Deep Brain Stimulators (DBS) in a part of the brain called the cerebellum and using electrical stimulation of that part of the brain to treat movement symptoms related to cerebral palsy. Ten children and young adults with dyskinetic …
Long-Term Behavioral and Cognitive Outcomes of Deep Brain Stimulation in Patients With Parkinson's Disease
The goal of this observational study is to evaluate the long-term effect of DBS-STN on cognitive and behavioral outcomes in Parkinson's disease (PD) patients. PD patients will be assessed over time using tests, questionnaires and standardized clinical scales. An initial assessment (T0) and annual follow-up assessments will be carried out …
Allogenic Adipose-derived Mesenchymal Stem Cells(AMSCs) for Epilepsy During Deep Brain Stimulation(DBS) Surgery
This study is a non-randomized, open label, phase 1 clinical trial to evaluate the fesibility and safety of intrathalamic delivery of MSCs during standard of care DBS surgery for epilepsy. Subjects will be screened at our outpatient clinic and interested qualified subjects will be consented and offered participation in this …
Constant Current Versus Constant Voltage Subthalamic Nucleus Deep Brain Stimulation in Patients with Parkinson's Disease
To compare the efficacy, programming burden, power consumption, and physicians' and patients' satisfaction between current mode and voltage mode of deep brain stimulation in each period one year after surgery.
REducing SPEECH-related Side-effects of Deep Brain Stimulation in Parkinson's Disease Via Automated Speech Analysis
The investigators' objective is to improve L-dopa sensitive PD-related dysarthria and at the same time reduce DBS-induced speech disorders with the help of automated acoustic analysis in patients with STN-DBS-induced dysarthria.
Glucose Consumption During Deep Brain Stimulation With Functional [18F]FDG-Brain-PET in Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder
The purpose of this randomized, sham-controlled study is to evaluate the effectiveness of DBS therapy in individuals suffering from severe OCD and to investigate DBS treatment with functional \[18F\]FDG-Brain-PET.
Efficacy and Influencing Factors of ALIC-NAc Deep Brain Stimulation in Treatment-Refractory Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder
The goal of this clinical trial is to evaluate the efficacy and influencing factors of the combination of the anterior limb of internal capsule and nucleus accumbens (ALIC-NAc) deep brain stimulation (DBS) in patients with treatment-refractory obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD). The main questions it aims to answer is: Does the timing …
